Assurance Argument
Please use the links below to review IWU's Assurance Argument in .pdf format. Unlike the traditional self-study, the Assurance Argument is submitted to the Higher Learning Commission via a web-based platform. Accompanying the Argument is an Evidence File, which allows the institution to upload existing files that contribute to the narrative. The text that you'll see in blue represents the evidence links that will be used by the HLC. These links are not accessible in the .pdf document. You'll also see a bulleted list of the evidence files at the end of each section.
