Middle States Self-Study Draft Community Event
Opportunity to share your feedback
Wednesday, April 23, 2025 · 12 - 1 PM
We invite the campus community to share feedback on UMBC’s draft Self-Study, a collaborative process of self-reflection aimed at reaffirming our commitment to continuous improvement. This effort meets MSCHE’s Standards of Accreditation and enhances our understanding of UMBC’s mission, goals, challenges, and opportunities. Our Self-Study promotes diverse reflection and dialogue to shape a thoughtful, forward-thinking vision for UMBC’s future. We are tasked with providing evidence of UMBC’s continuous improvement from 2016 to 2024.
Please register for this virtual event and plan to attend to share your feedback.
