Since outside accreditation is being pursued, would Founding Cohort graduates receive that recognition retroactively if it is approved?
Our intention is absolutely to advocate for our Founding Cohort if/when outside accreditation is approved. But because an outside accrediting organization ultimately controls its own requirements, I don't want to promise you retroactive recognition today when that approval process isn't complete.
If the accreditation is approved and they permit us to extend that recognition to previously certified students, our intention would be to include the Founding Cohort.
