California Will Comply With State Authorization Standards

California officials announced Friday that the state will on Monday move to comply with state authorization regulations—which went into effect by court order on May 26, 2019<http://nasfaa.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT04NzA4MDk3JnA9MSZ1PTEwMDY5OTQ0MjMmbGk9NjgyNjY0ODk/index.html>, the Department of Education (ED) announced last week—and potentially prevent 80,000 students from losing access to federal financial aid, POLITICO reported. The 2016 regulations require that institutions providing distance education to out-of-state students must document that the state in question has a student complaint process or participates in an appropriate state authorization reciprocity agreement. While California has a complaint process in place for proprietary institutions, it did not have one for nonprofit and public institutions, making those students ineligible for Title IV aid. The California Department of Consumer Affairs has created a complaint system for those institutions and will begin public outreach Monday to notify students.
