  • Programs should plan accordingly to receive approvals within the time frame required by the related Standard. Taking into consideration the length of time between submission and review, it is recommended that programs begin the approval process one year before a change.
  • Programs are NOT to submit ARC-PA template documents in PDF format unless so directed. Documents are to be submitted in the format in which they were designed.
  • Depending on the nature of the proposed program change or required report, additional supporting materials may be required. If this is the case, they are described within the form.

Please note that failure by the program to provide the documents and information as required may delay processing of a change request and /or may result in reconsideration of the program’s current accreditation status or an earlier scheduling of the next site visit to the program.

Programs and sponsoring institutions are reminded to retain copies of their applications, required reports, change requests and correspondence sent from the program to the ARC-PA or uploaded to the Portal. The ARC-PA is not a repository for program files. The program and sponsoring institution own the materials submitted to the ARC-PA for review and are responsible for maintaining their copies.
