Announced Compliance Inspection

An announced compliance begins with a desk review, during which a Bureau compliance analyst requests and reviews key documents such as enrollment agreements, catalogs, website content and supporting documentation for data reported related to Student Tuition Recovery Fund and School Performance Facts Sheets reporting requirements among other materials. This is followed by an on-site visit to examine additional records - including faculty and student files - observe daily operations and verify compliance with all laws and regulations governing private postsecondary education. The inspection is not limited to the items listed and may include any materials necessary to assess institutional compliance.

The Bureau provides advance notice of the inspection and works with the institution to schedule the visit.
