WSCUC Substantive Change

As defined by WSCUC, “A substantive change is a change to an institution’s mission, educational programs, scope, control, or organizational structure that needs to be reported to and approved by WSCUC in advance of implementation. The standard of review for substantive changes is whether a substantive change would adversely affect the institution’s capacity to meet WSCUC Standards of Accreditation.”

The Substantive Change Manual offers guidance to institutions on how to comply with WSCUC regulations and requirements related to the Substantive Change process.

Substantive Change Review Screening Form

\

A Substantive Change screening form is required to be submitted by the Quality Assurance offices at least six months prior to the planned implementation date of change through Institutional Accreditation Management Portal (IAMP).

For more information, please contact Qatar University’s accreditation liaison officer (ALO), Dr. Moumen Hasnah, Director of Institutional Research and Effectiveness at QUIRA@qu.edu.qa
