Accreditation Definitions & Procedures

1. Non-Accredited Associate Members Non-Accredited Associate Members are schools making initial and/or reapplication for membership but have

not completed a self-study or the evaluation process. The schools are placed in candidate status once the

accreditation process is started.

2. Letter of Intent and Initial Filing Fee In preparation for ANSAA accreditation, a letter of intent and initial filing fee are submitted to the ANSAA

Executive Director. The letter of intent includes verification from the school’s board of directors agreeing to

support the process and be responsible for all related costs. The letter is accompanied by an initial

accreditation filing fee of $100 and the name of the self-study instrument to be used. ANSAA defines a

school that is eligible for accreditation as one that is a complete unit, such as Elementary K-5, K-6, K-8;

Middle 5-9, 6-8, 7-9; High School 7-12, 9-12 10-12, or K-12 and is in compliance with all ANSAA

mandatory standards.

3. Candidate Status After the ANSAA Board has reviewed and accepted the school’s initial application for accreditation, the

school is placed in candidate status for a period of three years. During this time period an approved self-study

will be completed and the school will continue to pay the Non-Accredited associate membership dues. The

$100 filing fee will expire at the end of the three-year period for candidate status.

4. ANSAA Consultant The school will be assigned a consultant to assist with the self-study and accreditation process. After the

consultant notifies the ANSAA Executive Director that the school has completed the self-study and has met

the mandatory standards, a chairperson and validation team will be assigned to the school to conduct an on-

site visit to validate the school’s self-study and the ANSAA standards. If the school is doing a dual

accreditation, the regional team will serve as the consultant. An ANSAA representative will serve on the

regional team during the site visit to verify ANSAA standards. ANSAA can not participate in a dual

accreditation unless the school has met all ANSAA mandatory standards.

5. Expenses Incurred Schools going through the validation process are responsible for expenses incurred by the validation team

during the site visit, including reimbursement for transportation according to current state mileage rates,

meals, accommodations, and other miscellaneous expenses.

6. Recommendations After the ANSAA team has completed the validation visit, the chairperson will report the recommendations

made by the validation team to the ANSAA Board. The status of the school’s accreditation will be determined

by the ANSAA Board based on the major recommendations in the final report and the validation team’s vote

to accredit, defer, or not accredit.

7. Certificate of Accreditation An ANSAA certificate of accreditation is granted to the approved school for a period of seven (7) years. In

order to maintain the accreditation status during the designated period, annual reports and dues must be

submitted to the ANSAA office by September 15.

8. Accreditation Renewal ANSAA accredited schools start the renewal process by submitting a renewal application and a $100 filing

fee during the fourth year of the accreditation cycle. The schools may choose either Option I Self-Study or

Option II Project Development, both of which requires a four day site visit with an assigned chairperson. The

ANSAA Board of Directors must approve the option choice and all project designs before the school starts

the renewal process.
