HLC Self-study 2010


Message from the President

Paul B. Prestwich, Ph.D

Northwest College welcomes consultant-evaluators from the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools in November as part of the College’s reaccreditation process.

Following the November 15-17, 2010 visit, the five-person visiting team will submit a written report with findings and recommendations to the HLC. Northwest College will be notified of the Commission’s decision regarding reaccreditation following HLC board action.

Prior to this site visit, the College prepared a comprehensive Self-study, culminating four years of self-evaluation and intense preparation by our Accreditation Executive Committee and the entire college community as we seek reaccreditation and continual improvement of our programs and services. I believe the Self-study demonstrates that Northwest College vigorously meets all criteria established by the Commission.

If you’re a member of the college community or the greater community served by NWC, I invite you to visit the pages on this website and join me in welcoming the HLC visiting team to Northwest College. If you have questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me at 307.754.6200.
