contrary to the public interest (within the meaning of section
553(b)(3)(B) of title 5), and publishes the basis for such
determination in the Federal Register at the same time as the
proposed regulations in question are first published. All
published proposed regulations shall conform to agreements
resulting from such negotiated rulemaking unless the Secretary
reopens the negotiated rulemaking process or provides a written
explanation to the participants in that process why the Secretary
has decided to depart from such agreements. Such negotiated
rulemaking shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions
of paragraph (1), and the Secretary shall ensure that a clear and
reliable record of agreements reached during the negotiations
process is maintained.
(c) Applicability of Federal Advisory Committee Act
The Federal Advisory Committee Act shall not apply to activities
carried out under this section.
(d) Authorization of appropriations
There are authorized to be appropriated in any fiscal year or
made available from funds appropriated to carry out this part in
any fiscal year such sums as may be necessary to carry out the
provisions of this section, except that if no funds are
appropriated pursuant to this subsection, the Secretary shall make

-STATUTE-
(a) Preparations for Year 2000
In order to ensure that the processing, delivery, and
administration of grant, loan, and work assistance provided under
this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title
42 is not interrupted due to operational problems related to the
inability of computer systems to indicate accurately dates after
December 31, 1999, the Secretary of Education shall -
(1) take such actions as are necessary to ensure that all
internal and external systems, hardware, and data exchange
infrastructure administered by the Department that are necessary
for the processing, delivery, and administration of the grant,
loan, and work assistance are Year 2000 compliant by March 31,
1999, such that there will be no business interruption after
December 31, 1999;
(2) ensure that the Robert T. Stafford Federal Student Loan
Program and the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program are
equal in level of priority with respect to addressing, and that
resources are managed to equally provide for successful
resolution of, the Year 2000 computer problem in both programs by
December 31, 1999;
(3) work with the Department's various data exchange partners
under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of
title 42 to fully test all data exchange routes for Year 2000
compliance via end-to-end testing, and submit a report describing
the parameters and results of such tests to the Comptroller
General not later than March 31, 1999;
(4) ensure that the Inspector General of the Department (or an
external, independent entity selected by the Inspector General)
performs and publishes a risk assessment of the systems and
hardware under the Department's management, that has been
reviewed by an independent entity, and make such assessment
publicly available not later than 60 days after October 7, 1998;
(5) not later than June 30, 1999, ensure that the Inspector
General (or an external, independent entity selected by the
Inspector General) conducts a review of the Department's Year
2000 compliance for the processing, delivery, and administration
of grant, loan, and work assistance, and submits a report
reflecting the results of that review to the Chairperson of the
Committee on Labor and Human Resources of the Senate and the
Chairperson of the Committee on Education and the Workforce of
the House of Representatives;
(6) develop a contingency plan to ensure the programs under
this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title
42 will continue to run uninterrupted in the event of widespread
disruptions in the flow of accurate computerized data, which
contingency plan shall include a prioritization of mission
critical systems and strategies to allow data partners to
transfer data through alternate means; and
(7) alert Congress at the earliest possible time if mission
critical deadlines will not be met.
(b) Postponement authority for Year 2000
(1) Purpose
It is the purpose of this subsection to provide the Secretary
with the flexibility necessary to -
(A) ensure that the resources and capabilities of
institutions, lenders, and guaranty agencies are not
overburdened by the combination of student aid processing and
delivery requirements added or modified by the amendments made
by the Higher Education Amendments of 1998 and by the changes
required to ensure that the systems of the institutions,
lenders and guaranty agencies are Year 2000 compliant; and
(B) avoid the disruption of grant, loan, or work assistance
funds awarded to students because of Year 2000 compliance
problems at a substantial number of institutions, lenders, and
guaranty agencies.
(2) Authority to postpone
The Secretary may postpone, for a period of time described in
paragraph (3), the implementation of any requirements under part
B, C, D, or F of this subchapter that are added or modified by
the amendments made by the Higher Education Amendments of 1998
related to the processing or delivery of grant, loan, and work
assistance (which shall not include the determination of need for
such assistance) provided under this subchapter and part C of
subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42, if the Secretary -
(A) determines that -
(i) implementation of such requirements would require
extensive changes to the existing systems of institutions,
lenders, or guaranty agencies; and
(ii) postponement is necessary to avoid jeopardizing the
ability of a substantial number of institutions, lenders, or
guaranty agencies to ensure that all of the systems of the
institutions, lenders, or guaranty agencies related to the
processing or delivery of such assistance function
successfully after December 31, 1999; and
(B) promptly publishes in the Federal Register a list of, and
notifies Congress of, any provisions, the implementation of
which the Secretary intends to postpone, with the reasons for
such postponement.
(3) Exceptions to authority
The Secretary may not postpone the implementation of one or
more provisions described in this subsection longer than the
earlier of -
(A) the period of time that the Secretary determines
necessary to ensure that the processing and delivery systems of
the institutions, lenders, and guaranty agencies referred to in
paragraph (1)(A)(ii) (FOOTNOTE 1) are capable of functioning
successfully after December 31, 1999; or
(FOOTNOTE 1) So in original. Probably should be paragraph
''(2)(A)(ii)''.
(B) one award year after the effective date applicable to
such provision under the Higher Education Amendments of 1998.

Sec. 1099b. Recognition of accrediting agency or association
-STATUTE-
(a) Criteria required
No accrediting agency or association may be determined by the
Secretary to be a reliable authority as to the quality of education
or training offered for the purposes of this chapter or for other
Federal purposes, unless the agency or association meets criteria
established by the Secretary pursuant to this section. The
Secretary shall, after notice and opportunity for a hearing,
establish criteria for such determinations. Such criteria shall
include an appropriate measure or measures of student achievement.
Such criteria shall require that -
(1) the accrediting agency or association shall be a State,
regional, or national agency or association and shall demonstrate
the ability and the experience to operate as an accrediting
agency or association within the State, region, or nationally, as
appropriate;
(2) such agency or association -
(A)(i) for the purpose of participation in programs under
this chapter, has a voluntary membership of institutions of
higher education and has as a principal purpose the accrediting
of institutions of higher education; or
(ii) for the purpose of participation in other programs
administered by the Department of Education or other Federal
agencies, has a voluntary membership and has as its principal
purpose the accrediting of institutions of higher education or
programs;
(B) is a State agency approved by the Secretary for the
purpose described in subparagraph (A); or
(C) is an agency or association that, for the purpose of
determining eligibility for student assistance under this
subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title
42, conducts accreditation through (i) a voluntary membership
organization of individuals participating in a profession, or
(ii) an agency or association which has as its principal
purpose the accreditation of programs within institutions,
which institutions are accredited by another agency or
association recognized by the Secretary;
(3) if such agency or association is an agency or association
described in -
(A) subparagraph (A)(i) of paragraph (2), then such agency or
association is separate and independent, both administratively
and financially of any related, associated, or affiliated trade
association or membership organization;
(B) subparagraph (B) of paragraph (2), then such agency or
association has been recognized by the Secretary on or before
October 1, 1991; or
(C) subparagraph (C) of paragraph (2) and such agency or
association has been recognized by the Secretary on or before
October 1, 1991, then the Secretary may waive the requirement
that such agency or association is separate and independent,
both administratively and financially of any related,
associated, or affiliated trade association or membership
organization upon a demonstration that the existing
relationship has not served to compromise the independence of
its accreditation process;
(4) such agency or association consistently applies and
enforces standards that ensure that the courses or programs of
instruction, training, or study offered by the institution of
higher education, including distance education courses or
programs, are of sufficient quality to achieve, for the duration
of the accreditation period, the stated objective for which the
courses or the programs are offered;
(5) the standards for accreditation of the agency or
association assess the institution's -
(A) success with respect to student achievement in relation
to the institution's mission, including, as appropriate,
consideration of course completion, State licensing
examinations, and job placement rates;
(B) curricula;
(C) faculty;
(D) facilities, equipment, and supplies;
(E) fiscal and administrative capacity as appropriate to the
specified scale of operations;
(F) student support services;
(G) recruiting and admissions practices, academic calendars,
catalogs, publications, grading and advertising;
(H) measures of program length and the objectives of the
degrees or credentials offered;
(I) record of student complaints received by, or available
to, the agency or association; and
(J) record of compliance with its program responsibilities
under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34
of title 42 based on the most recent student loan default rate
data provided by the Secretary, the results of financial or
compliance audits, program reviews, and such other information
as the Secretary may provide to the agency or association;
except that subparagraphs (A), (H), and (J) shall not apply to
agencies or associations described in paragraph (2)(A)(ii) of
this subsection;
(6) such agency or association shall apply procedures
throughout the accrediting process, including evaluation and
withdrawal proceedings, that comply with due process, including -
(A) adequate specification of requirements and deficiencies
at the institution of higher education or program being
examined;
(B) notice of an opportunity for a hearing by any such
institution;
(C) the right to appeal any adverse action against any such
institution; and
(D) the right to representation by counsel for any such
institution;
(7) such agency or association shall notify the Secretary and
the appropriate State licensing or authorizing agency within 30
days of the accreditation of an institution or any final denial,
withdrawal, suspension, or termination of accreditation or
placement on probation of an institution, together with any other
adverse action taken with respect to an institution; and
(8) such agency or association shall make available to the
public, upon request, and to the Secretary, and the State
licensing or authorizing agency a summary of any review resulting
in a final accrediting decision involving denial, termination, or
suspension of accreditation, together with the comments of the
affected institution.
(b) ''Separate and independent'' defined
For the purpose of subsection (a)(3) of this section, the term
''separate and independent'' means that -
(1) the members of the postsecondary education governing body
of the accrediting agency or association are not elected or
selected by the board or chief executive officer of any related,
associated, or affiliated trade association or membership
organization;
(2) among the membership of the board of the accrediting agency
or association there shall be one public member (who is not a
member of any related trade or membership organization) for each
six members of the board, with a minimum of one such public
member, and guidelines are established for such members to avoid
conflicts of interest;
(3) dues to the accrediting agency or association are paid
separately from any dues paid to any related, associated, or
affiliated trade association or membership organization; and
(4) the budget of the accrediting agency or association is
developed and determined by the accrediting agency or association
without review or resort to consultation with any other entity or
organization.
(c) Operating procedures required
No accrediting agency or association may be recognized by the
Secretary as a reliable authority as to the quality of education or
training offered by an institution seeking to participate in the
programs authorized under this subchapter and part C of subchapter
I of chapter 34 of title 42, unless the agency or association -
(1) performs, at regularly established intervals, on-site
inspections and reviews of institutions of higher education
(which may include unannounced site visits) with particular focus
on educational quality and program effectiveness, and ensures
that accreditation team members are well-trained and
knowledgeable with respect to their responsibilities;
(2) requires that any institution of higher education subject
to its jurisdiction which plans to establish a branch campus
submit a business plan, including projected revenues and
expenditures, prior to opening the branch campus;
(3) agrees to conduct, as soon as practicable, but within a
period of not more than 6 months of the establishment of a new
branch campus or a change of ownership of an institution of
higher education, an on-site visit of that branch campus or of
the institution after a change of ownership;
(4) requires that teach-out agreements among institutions are
subject to approval by the accrediting agency or association
consistent with standards promulgated by such agency or
association;
(5) maintains and makes publicly available written materials
regarding standards and procedures for accreditation, appeal
procedures, and the accreditation status of each institution
subject to its jurisdiction; and

accreditation or reaccreditation.
(d) Length of recognition
No accrediting agency or association may be recognized by the
Secretary for the purpose of this chapter for a period of more than
5 years.

The Secretary may not recognize the accreditation of any
institution of higher education unless the institution of higher
education agrees to submit any dispute involving the final denial,
withdrawal, or termination of accreditation to initial arbitration
prior to any other legal action.
(f) Jurisdiction
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any civil action
brought by an institution of higher education seeking accreditation
from, or accredited by, an accrediting agency or association
recognized by the Secretary for the purpose of this subchapter and
part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42 and involving the
denial, withdrawal, or termination of accreditation of the
institution of higher education, shall be brought in the
appropriate United States district court.
(g) Limitation on scope of criteria
Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to permit the
Secretary to establish criteria for accrediting agencies or
associations that are not required by this section. Nothing in
this chapter shall be construed to prohibit or limit any
accrediting agency or association from adopting additional
standards not provided for in this section.
(h) Change of accrediting agency
The Secretary shall not recognize the accreditation of any
otherwise eligible institution of higher education if the
institution of higher education is in the process of changing its
accrediting agency or association, unless the eligible institution
submits to the Secretary all materials relating to the prior
accreditation, including materials demonstrating reasonable cause
for changing the accrediting agency or association.
(i) Dual accreditation rule
The Secretary shall not recognize the accreditation of any
otherwise eligible institution of higher education if the
institution of higher education is accredited, as an institution,
by more than one accrediting agency or association, unless the
institution submits to each such agency and association and to the
Secretary the reasons for accreditation by more than one such
agency or association and demonstrates to the Secretary reasonable
cause for its accreditation by more than one agency or
association. If the institution is accredited, as an institution,
by more than one accrediting agency or association, the institution
shall designate which agency's accreditation shall be utilized in
determining the institution's eligibility for programs under this
chapter.
(j) Impact of loss of accreditation
An institution may not be certified or recertified as an
institution of higher education under section 1002 of this title
and subpart 3 of this part or participate in any of the other
programs authorized by this chapter if such institution -
(1) is not currently accredited by any agency or association
recognized by the Secretary;
(2) has had its accreditation withdrawn, revoked, or otherwise
terminated for cause during the preceding 24 months, unless such
withdrawal, revocation, or termination has been rescinded by the
same accrediting agency; or
(3) has withdrawn from accreditation voluntarily under a show
cause or suspension order during the preceding 24 months, unless
such order has been rescinded by the same accrediting agency.
(k) Religious institution rule
Notwithstanding subsection (j) of this section, the Secretary
shall allow an institution that has had its accreditation
withdrawn, revoked, or otherwise terminated, or has voluntarily
withdrawn from an accreditation agency, to remain certified as an
institution of higher education under section 1002 of this title
and subpart 3 of this part for a period sufficient to allow such
institution to obtain alternative accreditation, if the Secretary
determines that the reason for the withdrawal, revocation, or
termination -
(1) is related to the religious mission or affiliation of the
institution; and
(2) is not related to the accreditation criteria provided for
in this section.
(l) Limitation, suspension, or termination of recognition
(1) If the Secretary determines that an accrediting agency or
association has failed to apply effectively the criteria in this
section, or is otherwise not in compliance with the requirements of
this section, the Secretary shall -
(A) after notice and opportunity for a hearing, limit, suspend,
or terminate the recognition of the agency or association; or
(B) require the agency or association to take appropriate
action to bring the agency or association into compliance with
such requirements within a timeframe specified by the Secretary,
except that -
(i) such timeframe shall not exceed 12 months unless the
Secretary extends such period for good cause; and
(ii) if the agency or association fails to bring the agency
or association into compliance within such timeframe, the
Secretary shall, after notice and opportunity for a hearing,
limit, suspend, or terminate the recognition of the agency or
association.
(2) The Secretary may determine that an accrediting agency or
association has failed to apply effectively the standards provided
in this section if an institution of higher education seeks and
receives accreditation from the accrediting agency or association
during any period in which the institution is the subject of any
interim action by another accrediting agency or association,
described in paragraph (2)(A)(i), (2)(B), or (2)(C) of subsection
(a) of this section, leading to the suspension, revocation, or
termination of accreditation or the institution has been notified
of the threatened loss of accreditation, and the due process
procedures required by such suspension, revocation, termination, or
threatened loss have not been completed.
(m) Limitation on Secretary's authority
The Secretary may only recognize accrediting agencies or
associations which accredit institutions of higher education for
the purpose of enabling such institutions to establish eligibility
to participate in the programs under this chapter or which accredit
institutions of higher education or higher education programs for
the purpose of enabling them to establish eligibility to
participate in other programs administered by the Department of
Education or other Federal agencies.
(n) Independent evaluation
(1) The Secretary shall conduct a comprehensive review and
evaluation of the performance of all accrediting agencies or
associations which seek recognition by the Secretary in order to
determine whether such accrediting agencies or associations meet
the criteria established by this section. The Secretary shall
conduct an independent evaluation of the information provided by
such agency or association. Such evaluation shall include -
(A) the solicitation of third-party information concerning the
performance of the accrediting agency or association; and
(B) site visits, including unannounced site visits as
appropriate, at accrediting agencies and associations, and, at
the Secretary's discretion, at representative member
institutions.
(2) The Secretary shall place a priority for review of
accrediting agencies or associations on those agencies or
associations that accredit institutions of higher education that
participate most extensively in the programs authorized by this
subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42 and
on those agencies or associations which have been the subject of
the most complaints or legal actions.
(3) The Secretary shall consider all available relevant
information concerning the compliance of the accrediting agency or
association with the criteria provided for in this section,
including any complaints or legal actions against such agency or
association. In cases where deficiencies in the performance of an
accreditation agency or association with respect to the
requirements of this section are noted, the Secretary shall take
these deficiencies into account in the recognition process. The
Secretary shall not, under any circumstances, base decisions on the
recognition or denial of recognition of accreditation agencies or
associations on criteria other than those contained in this
section. When the Secretary decides to recognize an accrediting
agency or association, the Secretary shall determine the agency or
association's scope of recognition. If the agency or association
reviews institutions offering distance education courses or
programs and the Secretary determines that the agency or
association meets the requirements of this section, then the agency
shall be recognized and the scope of recognition shall include
accreditation of institutions offering distance education courses
or programs.
(4) The Secretary shall maintain sufficient documentation to
support the conclusions reached in the recognition process, and, if
the Secretary does not recognize any accreditation agency or
association, shall make publicly available the reason for denying
recognition, including reference to the specific criteria under
this section which have not been fulfilled.
(o) Regulations
The Secretary shall by regulation provide procedures for the
recognition of accrediting agencies or associations and for the
appeal of the Secretary's decisions.

(a) General requirement
For purposes of qualifying institutions of higher education for
participation in programs under this subchapter and part C of
subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42, the Secretary shall
determine the legal authority to operate within a State, the
accreditation status, and the administrative capability and
financial responsibility of an institution of higher education in
accordance with the requirements of this section.
(b) Single application form
The Secretary shall prepare and prescribe a single application
form which -
(1) requires sufficient information and documentation to
determine that the requirements of eligibility, accreditation,
financial responsibility, and administrative capability of the
institution of higher education are met;
(2) requires a specific description of the relationship between
a main campus of an institution of higher education and all of
its branches, including a description of the student aid
processing that is performed by the main campus and that which is
performed at its branches;
(3) requires -
(A) a description of the third party servicers of an
institution of higher education; and
(B) the institution to maintain a copy of any contract with a
financial aid service provider or loan servicer, and provide a
copy of any such contract to the Secretary upon request;
(4) requires such other information as the Secretary determines
will ensure compliance with the requirements of this subchapter
and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42 with respect
to eligibility, accreditation, administrative capability and
financial responsibility; and
(5) provides, at the option of the institution, for
participation in one or more of the programs under part B or C of
this subchapter.
(c) Financial responsibility standards
(1) The Secretary shall determine whether an institution has the
financial responsibility required by this subchapter and part C of
subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42 on the basis of whether the
institution is able -
(A) to provide the services described in its official
publications and statements;
(B) to provide the administrative resources necessary to comply
with the requirements of this subchapter and part C of subchapter
I of chapter 34 of title 42; and
(C) to meet all of its financial obligations, including (but
not limited to) refunds of institutional charges and repayments
to the Secretary for liabilities and debts incurred in programs
administered by the Secretary.
(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1), if an institution fails to
meet criteria prescribed by the Secretary regarding ratios that
demonstrate financial responsibility, then the institution shall
provide the Secretary with satisfactory evidence of its financial
responsibility in accordance with paragraph (3). Such criteria
shall take into account any differences in generally accepted
accounting principles, and the financial statements required
thereunder, that are applicable to for profit, public, and
nonprofit institutions. The Secretary shall take into account an
institution's total financial circumstances in making a
determination of its ability to meet the standards herein required.
(3) The Secretary shall determine an institution to be
financially responsible, notwithstanding the institution's failure
to meet the criteria under paragraphs (1) and (2), if -
(A) such institution submits to the Secretary third-party
financial guarantees that the Secretary determines are
reasonable, such as performance bonds or letters of credit
payable to the Secretary, which third-party financial guarantees
shall equal not less than one-half of the annual potential
liabilities of such institution to the Secretary for funds under
this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title
42, including loan obligations discharged pursuant to section
1087 of this title, and to students for refunds of institutional
charges, including funds under this subchapter and part C of
subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42;
(B) such institution has its liabilities backed by the full
faith and credit of a State, or its equivalent;
(C) such institution establishes to the satisfaction of the
Secretary, with the support of a financial statement audited by
an independent certified public accountant in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards, that the institution has
sufficient resources to ensure against the precipitous closure of
the institution, including the ability to meet all of its
financial obligations (including refunds of institutional charges
and repayments to the Secretary for liabilities and debts
incurred in programs administered by the Secretary); or
(D) such institution has met standards of financial
responsibility, prescribed by the Secretary by regulation, that
indicate a level of financial strength not less than those
required in paragraph (2).
(4) If an institution of higher education that provides a 2-year
or 4-year program of instruction for which the institution awards
an associate or baccalaureate degree fails to meet the criteria
imposed by the Secretary pursuant to paragraph (2), the Secretary
shall waive that particular requirement for that institution if the
institution demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Secretary that
-
(A) there is no reasonable doubt as to its continued solvency
and ability to deliver quality educational services;
(B) it is current in its payment of all current liabilities,
including student refunds, repayments to the Secretary, payroll,
and payment of trade creditors and withholding taxes; and
(C) it has substantial equity in school-occupied facilities,
the acquisition of which was the direct cause of its failure to
meet the criteria.
(5) The determination as to whether an institution has met the
standards of financial responsibility provided for in paragraphs
(2) and (3)(C) shall be based on an audited and certified financial
statement of the institution. Such audit shall be conducted by a
qualified independent organization or person in accordance with
standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants. Such statement shall be submitted to the Secretary at
the time such institution is considered for certification or
recertification under this section. If the institution is
permitted to be certified (provisionally or otherwise) and such
audit does not establish compliance with paragraph (2), the
Secretary may require that additional audits be submitted.
(6)(A) The Secretary shall establish requirements for the
maintenance by an institution of higher education of sufficient
cash reserves to ensure repayment of any required refunds.
(B) The Secretary shall provide for a process under which the
Secretary shall exempt an institution of higher education from the
requirements described in subparagraph (A) if the Secretary
determines that the institution -
(i) is located in a State that has a tuition recovery fund that
ensures that the institution meets the requirements of
subparagraph (A);
(ii) contributes to the fund; and
(iii) otherwise has legal authority to operate within the
State.
(d) Administrative capacity standard
The Secretary is authorized -
(1) to establish procedures and requirements relating to the
administrative capacities of institutions of higher education,
including -
(A) consideration of past performance of institutions or
persons in control of such institutions with respect to student
aid programs; and
(B) maintenance of records;
(2) to establish such other reasonable procedures as the
Secretary determines will contribute to ensuring that the
institution of higher education will comply with administrative
capability required by this subchapter and part C of subchapter I
of chapter 34 of title 42.
(e) Financial guarantees from owners
(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Secretary
may, to the extent necessary to protect the financial interest of
the United States, require -
(A) financial guarantees from an institution participating, or
seeking to participate, in a program under this subchapter and
part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42, or from one or
more individuals who the Secretary determines, in accordance with
paragraph (2), exercise substantial control over such
institution, or both, in an amount determined by the Secretary to
be sufficient to satisfy the institution's potential liability to
the Federal Government, student assistance recipients, and other
program participants for funds under this subchapter and part C
of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42; and
(B) the assumption of personal liability, by one or more
individuals who exercise substantial control over such
institution, as determined by the Secretary in accordance with
paragraph (2), for financial losses to the Federal Government,
student assistance recipients, and other program participants for
funds under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter
34 of title 42, and civil and criminal monetary penalties
authorized under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of
chapter 34 of title 42.
(2)(A) The Secretary may determine that an individual exercises
substantial control over one or more institutions participating in
a program under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of
chapter 34 of title 42 if the Secretary determines that -
(i) the individual directly or indirectly controls a
substantial ownership interest in the institution;
(ii) the individual, either alone or together with other
individuals, represents, under a voting trust, power of attorney,
proxy, or similar agreement, one or more persons who have,
individually or in combination with the other persons represented
or the individual representing them, a substantial ownership
interest in the institution; or
(iii) the individual is a member of the board of directors, the
chief executive officer, or other executive officer of the
institution or of an entity that holds a substantial ownership
interest in the institution.
(B) The Secretary may determine that an entity exercises
substantial control over one or more institutions participating in
a program under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of
chapter 34 of title 42 if the Secretary determines that the entity
directly or indirectly holds a substantial ownership interest in
the institution.
(3) For purposes of this subsection, an ownership interest is
defined as a share of the legal or beneficial ownership or control

the preceding 5 years;
(B) has not had, during its 2 most recent audits of the
institutions conduct of programs under this subchapter and part C
of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42, an audit finding that

any manner to evade payment of such refund,
shall, in addition to other penalties provided by law, be liable to
the Secretary for the amount of the refund not paid, to the same

shall establish priorities by which institutions are to receive
site visits, and shall, to the extent practicable, coordinate such

was in effect prior to October 7, 1998), or upon request for
initial certification from an institution not previously

institution; or
(iii) the Secretary determines that an institution that seeks
to renew its certification is, in the judgment of the
Secretary, in an administrative or financial condition that may
jeopardize its ability to perform its financial
responsibilities under a program participation agreement.
(2) Whenever the Secretary withdraws the recognition of any
accrediting agency, an institution of higher education which meets
the requirements of accreditation, eligibility, and certification
on the day prior to such withdrawal, the Secretary may,
notwithstanding the withdrawal, continue the eligibility of the
institution of higher education to participate in the programs
authorized by this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter
34 of title 42 for a period not to exceed 18 months from the date
of the withdrawal of recognition.
(3) If, prior to the end of a period of provisional certification

program participation agreement, the Secretary may terminate the
institution's participation in programs under this subchapter and
part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42.

(1) An eligible institution of higher education that has had a
change in ownership resulting in a change of control shall not
qualify to participate in programs under this subchapter and part C
of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42 after the change in
control (except as provided in paragraph (3)) unless it establishes
that it meets the requirements of section 1002 of this title (other
than the requirements in subsections (b)(5) and (c)(3) (FOOTNOTE 1)
) and this section after such change in control.
(FOOTNOTE 1) See References in Text note below.
(2) An action resulting in a change in control may include (but

institution, of the ownership interest of the deceased in that
institution to a family member or to a person holding an
ownership interest in that institution; or
(B) another action determined by the Secretary to be a routine
business practice.
(4)(A) The Secretary may provisionally certify an institution
seeking approval of a change in ownership based on the preliminary
review by the Secretary of a materially complete application that
is received by the Secretary within 10 business days of the
transaction for which the approval is sought.
(B) A provisional certification under this paragraph shall expire
not later than the end of the month following the month in which
the transaction occurred, except that if the Secretary has not
issued a decision on the application for the change of ownership
within that period, the Secretary may continue such provisional
certification on a month-to-month basis until such decision has
been issued.
(j) Treatment of branches
(1) A branch of an eligible institution of higher education, as
defined pursuant to regulations of the Secretary, shall be
certified under this subpart before it may participate as part of
such institution in a program under this subchapter and part C of
subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42, except that such branch
shall not be required to meet the requirements of sections
1002(b)(1)(E) and 1002(c)(1)(C) of this title prior to seeking such
certification. Such branch is required to be in existence at least
2 years after the branch is certified by the Secretary as a branch
campus participating in a program under this subchapter and part C
of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42, prior to seeking
certification as a main campus or free-standing institution.
(2) The Secretary may waive the requirement of section 1001(a)(2)
of this title for a branch that (A) is not located in a State, (B)
is affiliated with an eligible institution, and (C) was
participating in one or more programs under this subchapter and

Sec. 1101. Findings; purpose; and program authority
-STATUTE-
(a) Findings
Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Hispanic Americans are at high risk of not enrolling or
graduating from institutions of higher education.
(2) Disparities between the enrollment of non-Hispanic white
students and Hispanic students in postsecondary education are
increasing. Between 1973 and 1994, enrollment of white secondary
school graduates in 4-year institutions of higher education
increased at a rate two times higher than that of Hispanic
secondary school graduates.
(3) Despite significant limitations in resources,
Hispanic-serving institutions provide a significant proportion of
postsecondary opportunities for Hispanic students.
(4) Relative to other institutions of higher education,
Hispanic-serving institutions are underfunded. Such institutions
receive significantly less in State and local funding, per
full-time equivalent student, than other institutions of higher
education.
(5) Hispanic-serving institutions are succeeding in educating
Hispanic students despite significant resource problems that -
(A) limit the ability of such institutions to expand and
improve the academic programs of such institutions; and
(B) could imperil the financial and administrative stability
of such institutions.
(6) There is a national interest in remedying the disparities
described in paragraphs (2) and (4) and ensuring that Hispanic
students have an equal opportunity to pursue postsecondary
opportunities.
(b) Purpose
The purpose of this subchapter is to -
(1) expand educational opportunities for, and improve the
academic attainment of, Hispanic students; and
(2) expand and enhance the academic offerings, program quality,
and institutional stability of colleges and universities that are
educating the majority of Hispanic college students and helping
large numbers of Hispanic students and other low-income
individuals complete postsecondary degrees.
(c) Program authority
The Secretary shall provide grants and related assistance to
Hispanic-serving institutions to enable such institutions to
improve and expand their capacity to serve Hispanic students and
other low-income individuals.

(a) Findings
The Congress finds that -
(1) the future economic welfare of the United States will
depend substantially on increasing international skills in the
business and educational community and creating an awareness
among the American public of the internationalization of our
economy;

language and area study programs, professional international
affairs education programs, public and private sector
organizations, and United States business in a mutually
productive relationship which benefits the Nation's future
economic interests;
(3) few linkages presently exist between the manpower and
information needs of United States business and the international
education, language training and research capacities of
institutions of higher education in the United States, and public
and private organizations; and
(4) organizations such as world trade councils, world trade
clubs, chambers of commerce and State departments of commerce are
not adequately used to link universities and business for joint
venture exploration and program development.
(b) Purposes
It is the purpose of this part -
(1) to enhance the broad objective of this chapter by
increasing and promoting the Nation's capacity for international
understanding and economic enterprise through the provision of
suitable international education and training for business
personnel in various stages of professional development; and
(2) to promote institutional and noninstitutional educational
and training activities that will contribute to the ability of
United States business to prosper in an international economy.

succeeding academic year, such stipend shall be set at a level of
support equal to that provided by the National Science Foundation

under this subpart who has been notified in writing by the

submitted fraudulent information on the application.
(B) Subject to the availability of appropriations, amounts
payable to an institution by the Secretary pursuant to this
subsection shall not be reduced for any purpose other than the

(E) has necessary research resources not otherwise readily
available in such institutions to such students.
(b) Award and duration of grants
(1) Awards
The principal criterion for the award of grants shall be the
relative quality of the graduate programs presented in competing

quality of competing applications, the Secretary shall, in
awarding such grants, promote an equitable geographic
distribution among eligible public and private institutions of
higher education.

than $100,000 and not greater than $750,000.
(3) Reallotment
Whenever the Secretary determines that an academic department,
program or unit of an institution of higher education is unable
to use all of the amounts available to the department, program or
unit under this subpart, the Secretary shall, on such dates
during each fiscal year as the Secretary may fix, reallot the
amounts not needed to academic departments, programs and units of
institutions which can use the grants authorized by this subpart.
(c) Preference to continuing grant recipients
(1) In general
The Secretary shall make new grant awards under this subpart
only to the extent that each previous grant recipient under this
subpart has received continued funding in accordance with
subsection (b)(2)(A) of this section.

-HEAD-
Sec. 1135c. Awards to graduate students
-STATUTE-
(a) Commitments to graduate students
(1) In general
An academic department, program or unit of an institution of
higher education shall make commitments to graduate students who
are eligible students under section 1091 of this title (including
students pursuing a doctoral degree after having completed a
master's degree program at an institution of higher education) at
any point in their graduate study to provide stipends for the
length of time necessary for a student to complete the course of
graduate study, but in no case longer than 5 years.
(2) Special rule
No such commitments shall be made to students under this
subpart unless the academic department, program or unit has
determined adequate funds are available to fulfill the commitment
from funds received or anticipated under this subpart, or from
institutional funds.
(b) Amount of stipends
The Secretary shall make payments to institutions of higher
education for the purpose of paying stipends to individuals who are
awarded fellowships under this subpart. The stipends the Secretary
establishes shall reflect the purpose of the program under this
subpart to encourage highly talented students to undertake graduate
study as described in this subpart. In the case of an individual
who receives such individual's first stipend under this subpart in
academic year 1999-2000 or any succeeding academic year, such
stipend shall be set at a level of support equal to that provided
by the National Science Foundation graduate fellowships, except
such amount shall be adjusted as necessary so as not to exceed the
fellow's demonstrated level of need as determined under part E of
subchapter IV of this chapter.
(c) Treatment of institutional payments
An institution of higher education that makes institutional
payments for tuition and fees on behalf of individuals supported by
fellowships under this subpart in amounts that exceed the
institutional payments made by the Secretary pursuant to section
1135d(a) (FOOTNOTE 1) of this title may count such excess toward
the amounts the institution is required to provide pursuant to
section 1135b(b)(2) (FOOTNOTE 1) of this title.
(FOOTNOTE 1) See References in Text note below.
(d) Academic progress required
Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) of this section,
no student shall receive an award -
(1) except during periods in which such student is maintaining
satisfactory progress in, and devoting essentially full time to,
study or research in the field in which such fellowship was
awarded; or
(2) if the student is engaging in gainful employment other than
part-time employment involved in teaching, research, or similar
activities determined by the institution to be in support of the
student's progress towards a degree.

REFERENCES IN TEXT
Section 1135d(a) of this title, referred to in subsec. (c), was
in the original ''section 716(a)'', meaning section 716(a) of Pub.
L. 89-329, which was translated as reading section 715(a) of that
Act to reflect the probable intent of Congress, because section
715(a) relates to institutional payments, and section 716, which is
classified to section 1135e of this title, does not relate to
institutional payments and does not contain a subsec. (a).
Section 1135b(b)(2) of this title, referred to in subsec. (c),
was in the original ''section 714(b)(2)'', meaning section
714(b)(2) of Pub. L. 89-329, which was translated as reading
section 713(b)(2) of that Act to reflect the probable intent of
Congress, because section 713(b)(2) relates to amounts that
institutions are required to provide from non-Federal sources, and
section 714, which is classified to this section, does not relate
to amounts that institutions are required to provide and does not
contain a subsec. (b)(2).

-STATUTE-
The Congress finds that -
(1) the Nation's urban centers are facing increasingly pressing
problems and needs in the areas of economic development,
community infrastructure and service, social policy, public
health, housing, crime, education, environmental concerns,
planning and work force preparation;
(2) there are, in the Nation's urban institutions, people with
underutilized skills, knowledge, and experience who are capable
of providing a vast range of services toward the amelioration of
the problems described in paragraph (1);
(3) the skills, knowledge and experience in these urban
institutions, if applied in a systematic and sustained manner,
can make a significant contribution to the solution of such
problems; and
(4) the application of such skills, knowledge and experience is
hindered by the limited funds available to redirect attention to
solutions to such urban problems.

incarcerated in the Nation's jails, juvenile facilities, and
prisons.
(2) Most youth offenders who are incarcerated have been
sentenced as first-time adult felons.
(3) Approximately 75 percent of youth offenders are high school
dropouts who lack basic literacy and life skills, have little or
no job experience, and lack marketable skills.
(4) The average incarcerated youth has attended school only
through grade 10.
(5) Most of these youths can be diverted from a life of crime
into productive citizenship with available educational,
vocational, work skills, and related service programs.
(6) If not involved with educational programs while
incarcerated, almost all of these youths will return to a life of
crime upon release.
(7) The average length of sentence for a youth offender is
about 3 years. Time spent in prison provides a unique
opportunity for education and training.
(8) Even with quality education and training provided during
incarceration, a period of intense supervision, support, and
counseling is needed upon release to ensure effective
reintegration of youth offenders into society.
(9) Research consistently shows that the vast majority of
incarcerated youths will not return to the public schools to
complete their education.
(10) There is a need for alternative educational opportunities
during incarceration and after release.
(b) ''Youth offender'' defined
For purposes of this section, the term ''youth offender'' means a
male or female offender under the age of 25, who is incarcerated in
a State prison, including a prerelease facility.
(c) Grant program
The Secretary of Education (in this section referred to as the
''Secretary'') shall establish a program in accordance with this
section to provide grants to the State correctional education
agencies in the States, from allocations for the States under
subsection (i) of this section, to assist and encourage
incarcerated youths to acquire functional literacy, life, and job
skills, through the pursuit of a postsecondary education
certificate, or an associate of arts or bachelor's degree while in
prison, and employment counseling and other related services which
start during incarceration and continue through prerelease and
while on parole.
(d) Application
To be eligible for a grant under this section, a State
correctional education agency shall submit to the Secretary a
proposal for a youth offender program that -
(1) identifies the scope of the problem, including the number
of incarcerated youths in need of postsecondary education and
vocational training;
(2) lists the accredited public or private educational
institution or institutions that will provide postsecondary
educational services;
(3) lists the cooperating agencies, public and private, or
businesses that will provide related services, such as counseling
in the areas of career development, substance abuse, health, and

the proposal; and
(B) shall include measures of -
(i) program completion;
(ii) student academic and vocational skill attainment;
(iii) success in job placement and retention; and
(iv) recidivism;
(5) describes how the proposed programs are to be integrated
with existing State correctional education programs (such as
adult education, graduate education degree programs, and
vocational training) and State industry programs;
(6) addresses the educational needs of youth offenders who are
in alternative programs (such as boot camps); and
(7) describes how students will be selected so that only youth
offenders eligible under subsection (f) of this section will be
enrolled in postsecondary programs.
(e) Program requirements
Each State correctional education agency receiving a grant under
this section shall -
(1) integrate activities carried out under the grant with the
objectives and activities of the school-to-work programs of such
State, including -
(A) work experience or apprenticeship programs;
(B) transitional worksite job training for vocational
education students that is related to the occupational goals of

(D) employment-based learning programs; and
(E) programs that address State and local labor shortages;
(2) annually report to the Secretary and the Attorney General
on the results of the evaluations conducted using the methods and
performance measures contained in the proposal; and
(3) provide to each State for each student eligible under
subsection (f) of this section not more than $1,500 annually for
tuition, books, and essential materials, and not more than $300
annually for related services such as career development,
substance abuse counseling, parenting skills training, and health
education, for each eligible incarcerated youth.
(f) Student eligibility
A youth offender shall be eligible for participation in a program
receiving a grant under this section if the youth offender -

the period of incarceration in prison or prerelease and may
continue during the period of parole.
(h) Education delivery systems

institutions shall, to the extent practicable, use high-tech
applications in developing programs to meet the requirements and
goals of this section.
(i) Allocation of funds
From the funds appropriated pursuant to subsection (j) of this

all States.
(j) Authorization of appropriations
There are authorized to be appropriated to carry out this section
$17,000,000 for fiscal year 1999 and such sums as may be necessary
for each of the 4 succeeding fiscal years.
