Welcome

To the home page for the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire’s 2009 re-accreditation. UW-Eau Claire has been continuously accredited since 1950 by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. Our 2009 Self Study is now complete and the University will host its comprehensive site visit on September 14-16, 2009.

Our 2009 Self-Study Report

The Self-Study Report addresses five Criteria and was created after more than two years of campus surveys, focus groups and research that involved hundreds of faculty, staff, students and alumni. Visit our Resource Room to view evidence supporting our report (requires Blugold login).

Use this site and our Frequently Asked Questions to learn more about accreditation, the site visit, and to read our Self-Study report. The Executive Summary outlines what we learned about our University in regard to each of the five Criteria.
