Forms and Reports
The purpose of this section is to set forth the applications, reports, forms and exhibits that schools must submit to inform the Commission of any changes which affect the educational purposes, programs, administrative functions, or management of the school. These applications and reports are critical to the Commission’s ability to determine compliance with accrediting standards.
A school is responsible through its reports for demonstrating continuing compliance with accrediting standards. A school is responsible for monitoring when appropriate applications and reports need to be filed. Applications and reports submitted for Commission review must be complete, accurate, signed by the school’s chief executive officer, and filed in a timely manner. Applicable fees must accompany the application or report.
At its discretion, the Commission may prescribe a specific time frame that is different from the customary period for the submission of school applications or reports.

September 2007
ACCSCT continuously seeks ways to improve the efficiency of its procedures as a means to ensure the best allocation of its resources and the resources of its accredited institutions. To that end, ACCSCT’s accreditation processes and procedures have become increasingly reliant upon technology as a means of achieving greater efficiency.
Over the past two years, the Commission has undertaken an electronic submission pilot project in which a small number of institutions volunteered to prepare and submit applications and responses to the Commission in electronic format using the ACCSCT Instructions for Electronic Submission.
Based on the success of the pilot along with the 100% success rate for accredited institutions submitting the Online Annual Report, the Commission has determined that ACCSCT can transition to receiving all applications, forms, responses, and other documentation from institutions in electronic format. The Commission has established a timeline to phase in the submission of electronic documents incrementally over the next eighteen months.
