State Authorization, Gainful Employment, Ability To Benefit Comments Due Tuesday

Comments on the Department of Education's proposed regulations covering state authorization, gainful employment, ability to benefit, and more are due no later than Tuesday, June 20. There is concern that, as written, there could be a significant impact on reciprocity for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (SARA)-participating institutions and SARA member states. Also, Section §668.16(r) addresses Administrative Capability-Accessible Clinical or Externship Opportunities. The National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (NC-SARA) has posted its comment letter here, and maintains a call-to-action page here which should be helpful to institutions when preparing their own comments.

Comments may be submitted here.
