What is the Middle States Commission?
The Middle States Commission on Higher Education is the unit of the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools that accredits degree-granting colleges and universities in the Middle States region, which includes Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and several locations internationally.
The Commission is a voluntary, non-governmental, membership association that defines, maintains, and promotes educational excellence across institutions with diverse missions, student populations, and resources. It examines each institution as a whole, rather than specific programs within institutions.

What is the Middle States Self Study?
The self study is a decennial process of self-evaluation
for the purpose of institutional improvement and to attain or
maintain accredited status with the Middle States Commission
on Higher Education. Ramapo was reaccredited in 2010.
The process for applying for re-accreditation involves examining
the college's programs and services within the context of
the fourteen standards outlined in the Commission's Characteristics
of Excellence in Higher Education and the college's own mission.
Through this process, areas of strength and need for
improvements will be identified. In order to be meaningful
and useful for the institution, the self study should be a deep
and rigorous process, with broad participation from the college community.
