VSA - Voluntary System of Accountability
Developed through a partnership between the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) and the National Association of State Universities and Land-Grant Colleges (NASULGC), the Voluntary System of Accountability (VSA) is designed to help 4-year public institutions meet the following objectives:
- Demonstrate accountability and stewardship to public
- Measure educational outcomes to identify effective educational practices
- Assemble information that is accessible, understandable, and comparable
The Voluntary System of Accountability uses the College Portrait as a common web report to communicate information on the undergraduate student experience.
