Middle States Evaluation Report [PDF]

Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education, a voluntary, nongovernmental, peer-based membership association dedicated to promoting standards of excellence and improvement in higher education. The decennial reaccreditation process, which began in 2006, will culminate in 2008. Over 200 members of the Rutgers community on all three campuses have been involved in the development of an institutional self-study, a major component of the reaccreditation process.

The self-study has been completed and is now available online. A team of external peer educators conducted a site visit from March 9 to March 12, 2008, to evaluate Rutgers in the context of its self-study and the Middle States standards for accreditation. The commission is expected to make its determination on reaccreditation in June.

Read a message from President Richard L. McCormick describing the reaccreditation process.
