Application Procedure

HEIs must indicate their interest in being assessed by completing the online form available on the IFCU website, under the heading « University social responsibility ». At this stage, the HEIs must also send, signed, dated and stamped, the Charter of Commitment, which can be downloaded from the website. This Charter specifies the respective commitments of IFCU, on the one hand, and of the establishment applying for accreditation, on the other. It sets out the responsibilities, rights and duties of each of the two partners as part of the accreditation scheme. The Charter must be sent, scanned, to the email indicated on the form.

Non-member HEIs must also provide a copy of the official document of recognition as a Catholic HEI awarded by the Congregation for Catholic Education, by sending it to the email on the form.

Once the application has been approved, the person appointed as main interlocutor within the applicant HEI will receive confirmation from IFCU, as well as an order to pay the evaluation fees.

Following payment of the fees, said interlocutor will receive the access codes to the online platform on which he will have to enter the required information, as well as upload the requested documents in support of the data provided. The online platform will be available both in English and Spanish.

Information can be entered as soon as the platform is opened, that is, on April 1st of each year, and until August 31st of the same year.

IFCU reserves the right to request additional information from applicant HEIs.

The results will then be analyzed by the Mileva AI system and communicated to each HEI between September and October of the same year via the online platform (dashboard). The Dashboard will be available both in English and Spanish. One or more labels will also be granted at that time, if applicable. A communication concerning the attribution of the label (s), their logo (s) as well as the Performance Charter describing its attribution will be sent to the beneficiary institutions.
