Third-Party Comment
You may also provide a third-party comment directly to the ACCJC. A third-party comment
assists the Commission as it considers applications for candidacy, accreditation,
or reaffirmation of accreditation. When an institution is undergoing a review, the
Commission requires the institution’s chief executive officer to notify the campus
community and public of the opportunity for submission of third-party comments and
the process for doing so. Any member of the college community or public may submit
a third-party comment by completing the Commission’s online third-party comment form,
available via the institution’s website or ACCJC’s website. In order to ensure evaluation
of applicable third-party comments by the peer review team, third-party comments should
be received by the Commission staff no later than five weeks before the peer review
team visit. Institutions will be provided an opportunity to review applicable third-party
comments.
