This podcast contains comments from Texas A&M assistant provost Alicia Dorsey during the August 9, 2021 A&M faculty senate meeting.

Texas A&M has started the lengthy process of being reaccredited for the next five years.

When assistant provost Alicia Dorsey presented an update to A&M's faculty senate on August 9, she was in a 24 day sequestration period collecting information.

Dr. Dorsey, who is A&M's liaison with The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC), reminded the faculty senate this is a pass/fail process.

According to A&M's accreditation website (https://aa.tamu.edu/Accreditation), the university will submit a compliance certification and institutional summary on September 7.

That's followed by an off site review in November, an on-site review next March, and a final review in December of next year.
