University Accreditation 2025
Reaffirmation GoalsAs part of maintaining university accreditation, Cal State Â鶹Éç (and all California State University’s) periodically undergo a reaffirmation of accreditation from the (WSCUC). The goal of our reaffirmation review in 2025 is Cal State Â鶹Éç’s demonstration of the ongoing improvement of student learning, student success, and institutional effectiveness. This process affirms the University is meeting acceptable levels of quality demonstrating compliance with WSCUC and federal regulations. Reaffirmation also helps to ensure credits and degrees earned by students are continued to be recognized for employment and transfer to other institutions. It is also required for state funding and federal aid. Accreditation Review Team Visit March 19-21The Cal State Â鶹Éç campus hosted an official accreditation reaffirmation team visit from our accrediting agency, the (WSCUC) on March 19-21, 2025. Thank you students, staff, and faculty for participating. Next, the WSCUC team members will prepare and send the University their report on the visit and CSUEB's Institutional Report. President Sandeen will have the opportunity to submit a response. WSCUC will then send an action letter to President Sandeen and the University's Accreditation Liaison Officer, Fanny Yeung in the summer, 2025. It will then be distributed to the campus community along with next steps the university community will take to implement these action items. WSCUC will also publish the action letter and team report on its website. Learn More about the Preparation Process

Based largely on existing groups, Institutional Review Process committees formed in the Fall of 2022 representing leadership, faculty, staff, and students throughout the entire institution. After receiving guidance on the process, committees completed a Self-Study of WSCUC Standards that was used for continuous improvement and to write the Institutional Report. In the Fall of 2023 and Spring of 2024, Sarah Nielsen, English faculty, was the lead writer for the Institutional Report facilitating input and feedback from Institutional Review Process committees and the institution.
