UT Dallas' SACSCOC Project

2018 Reaffirmation Review Project Timeline1

The timeline for the 2018 Reaffirmation Review project showed the critical dates for submitting two key documents to SACSCOC: the completed Compliance Certification Report (CCR) and the Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) proposal1. There were also additional critical dates which included not only the timeframe for SACSCOC to conduct their Off-Site review, as well as visiting UT Dallas campus as part of its On-Site review. Additionally, the dates were also for the various committees who submitted their materials for review and/or approval on time.

Although the timeline was built around these critical dates, it was still subject to change as it was a work in progress.

The timeline shown below is in chart form; however users can also download a PDF version of the timeline.
