Drake’s accreditation process with the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) is underway, and we invite all faculty and staff to share their perspectives.

As part of our preparation for our December 2027 accreditation submission and February 2028 site visit, we are gathering feedback on the four HLC Criteria for Accreditation: Mission; Integrity; Teaching and Learning for Student Success; and Sustainability.

Your input will help inform the work of the accreditation criterion committees and ensure the final assurance argument reflects the experiences and strengths of our campus community.

Please take a few minutes to submit your feedback using this form.

If you have any questions or comments, please don’t hesitate to reach out to anyone on our HLC accreditation leadership team: Jenny Tran-Johnson, John Edwards, Nate Reagen, and Anne Marie Greenwood. Thank you for supporting this important institutional process.
