Principles, Standards & Policies
The standards institutions are reviewed against, and the policies and procedures that govern how The Commission works.
Documents Published as SACSCOC
Documents published before September 1, 2026 carry our former name, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges. They remain in effect as published. A change in the organization’s name does not affect the standing of any document, and documents are not reissued for that reason alone.
Can't Find a Document?
If you cannot find a document or are not sure which one applies to your situation, your institution’s assigned staff liaison is the fastest way to an answer.
