Applications Can Be Submitted at Any Time Throughout the Year
Applicant facilities may submit their applications at any time. However, in order to be processed in upcoming month, the IAC recommends that facilities submit their application by the first of the month and case studies should be received in the IAC office no later than the 5th of the month. Materials received after those dates will be processed with the next month’s deadline. Processing the application will move it forward through the review process and an accreditation decision will generally be rendered within 12 weeks of submission.
The case study images, IAC Accreditation Agreement, attestations, and fee (if paid by check) must be received in the IAC office no later than 5 days* following the online submission. Application submissions with the corresponding application materials that arrive late or are incomplete will be processed with the subsequent submission group.
