The Institutional Proposal (PDF) is the first element of Biola’s presentation to WASC and the first stage in Biola’s accreditation review cycle. The purpose of the Proposal is to guide the entire accreditation review process and to enable the process to be anchored in each institution's distinctive context and desired outcomes. Once the Proposal is approved, it becomes part of the total body of institutional material that supports the review during its subsequent two stages.
Biola’s initial Proposal was submitted May 2003. A revised Proposal was submitted October 2003 and approved January 2004.
