Western Connecticut State University announces accreditation renewal rom the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, the preeminent  accreditation organization for educational institutions in the region.

The NEASC Commission on Institutions of Higher Education informed WCSU President James Schmotter in a letter dated June 4 that action was taken in late April to approve the WCSU reaccreditation following a two-year process of self-study by the university community and a site visit to Western in fall 2013 by a NEASC team of faculty and administrators from colleges across New England.

Commission Chair Jean Wyld commended Western for being “committed to the comprehensive assessment of institutional effectiveness” and noted “there is much to celebrate in the university’s growth and development over the last decade.” Wyld wrote that the Commission found that a strong administrative team and a dedicated faculty and staff, coupled with commitment to teaching and student service, have left WCSU “well positioned for future success.”
