On December 10th, 2025, the School officially received a letter from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), confirming that the School of Management's second progress report had passed the rigorous review by the Initial Accreditation Committee (IAC) and was successfully approved. The School has now officially entered the preparation stage for the on-site visit of the initial accreditation. This marks a crucial step forward in the School's journey towards AACSB, the world's most authoritative business accreditation.

AACSB accreditation is globally renowned for its rigorous standards and continuous improvement mechanism. The approval of this review is a key milestone in the School's AACSB accreditation application process. It is not only a recognition of the concerted efforts of all faculty, staff and students over the past few years, but also sounds the clarion call for the final on-site visit.

The School will now formally enter the preparation stage for the on-site visit. Taking this as an opportunity, the entire School will work with one heart and in concerted effort, welcoming the review by international peer experts with full vigor and thorough preparation, striving to successfully achieve the ultimate goal of accreditation and to continuously enhance the School's educational quality and international reputation.
