Since 2004, AUB has been continuously accredited as an institution by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE), a voluntary, nongovernmental, peer-based membership association dedicated to promoting standards of excellence and improvement in higher education. \
\
In 2016, in preparation for a decennial Middle States reaccreditation evaluation, the university initiated an extensive institutional self-study process. The resulting report offers a comprehensive analysis of the university’s progress and accomplishments over the last decade.\
\
The MSCHE Evaluation Team visited AUB in March 3-6, 2019 to learn more about the university and address any questions that the team may have after reviewing the Self-Study Report.
We invite you to learn more about the Self-Study process and to read the below report through this site.\
