The University of Idaho is required to complete a Prospectus to be submitted to the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities as described in Policy A-2 to maintain accreditation and comply with reporting policy. While the decision to make changes is an institutional prerogative and responsibility, the Commission is obligated to monitor the effect of the change on the validity of the institution’s accreditation status with the Commission. Descriptive information and evidence of appropriate approvals for NOIs and Full Academic Proposals are reported each year.
