Closed School Guide for Schools

![](media/image2.png){width="5.194444444444445in"

The closing of a school can be one of the most frustrating and
disruptive events possible for a student. Many students who are affected
by a school closure cannot continue their education due to lack of
opportunity, financial difficulties, or other problems connected to the
school that closed. This guide is designed to help you, as school
administrators, to help these students continue their education by
providing you with information you need to know to provide these
students with access to educational services and federal "Title IV"
student financial assistance funds. The U.S. Department of Education
(the Department), Accrediting bodies, State licensing or oversight
agencies (State authorizing agencies), and guarantee agencies for the
Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program may also assist you with
various aspects of the process.

## First Steps -- Getting to the Students

Once a school has closed, the challenge of communicating with its former
students becomes increasingly difficult. Therefore, in order to help
these students continue their education, outreach efforts need to be
made as soon as possible to encourage them to obtain copies of their
financial and academic transcripts and attendance records, as these
documents will streamline their transition to a new school. The State
authorizing agencies in the State in which the school is located should
be able to assist the ![](media/image4.wmf){width="3.8194444444444446in"
height="4.583333333333333in"}students in obtaining these records, or, be
able to refer the student to the source where they can obtain them. The
State authorizing agencies are listed in the appendix to this guide.

## Helping the Student to Continue His or Her Education

If you are able to assist students by offering opportunities to complete
their educational programs, these opportunities will be offered through
**teach--outs** or student **transfers** to your institution.

> **Teach-Outs**

A teach-out is an arrangement by which a school agrees to provide the
students of a closed school an opportunity to complete the same or very
similar program of study offered by the closed school, to the extent
this is feasible, without additional charge to the student. A teach-out
agreement is

a written agreement between schools that must be approved by the
Accrediting body. Very often, the State authorizing agencies are
involved in approving teach-out agreements.

![](media/image5.wmf){width="3.3333333333333335in" height="6.25in"}These
agreements often include provisions regarding the experience, resources
and support services needed by the teach-out school to provide a program
which is of acceptable quality and is reasonably similar in content,
structure and length to that provided by the closed school. Also, the
teach-out school must be able to provide reasonable access to the
teach-out program and educational services so that students are not
required to relocate or travel substantial distances to complete their
training. The State authorizing agency and Accrediting body will work
together with the Department, to the extent feasible, to provide
students reasonable opportunities to complete their education without
additional charge beyond that for which the students had already
contracted.

![](media/image6.wmf){width="3.4166666666666665in"
height="6.416666666666667in"}As stated above, both a school's State
authorizing agency and Accrediting body generally must approve a
teach-out agreement. In particular, schools may need to obtain approvals
from these entities to offer the specific educational program(s) being
taught-out or to use the closed school's location(s) for purposes of the
teach-out.

## Transfers

A transfer is a situation in which a student enrolls at another school
with or without the intention of completing a same or similar program of
study. When a student transfers to another school, the student is
responsible for paying any costs associated with the education or
training he or she receives at the new school. When a student transfers,
a school may evaluate and accept clock or credit hours earned at the
closed school and apply them to the student's program at the new school,
subject to Accrediting body and/or State authorizing agency
requirements. In some cases, a school may also award transferring
students credit based on approved testing procedures.

####  Approvals - Programs

![](media/image7.wmf){width="6.916666666666667in"
height="8.166666666666666in"}As mentioned above, a school will need
approval from its accreditor to offer a teach-out for the students
affected by a school closure. The school may also need approval from the
State authorizing agency to conduct the teach-out. These approvals are
needed to ensure that the students are receiving the same or equivalent
educational credential and that the school conducting the teach-out has
all the applicable licenses to offer that credential. Therefore, it is
important that you work with your accreditor and State authorizing
agency to ensure that you are authorized to conduct a teach-out.

You do not need to receive approval from the Department to award aid to
a student continuing his or her program of study under a teach-out if
the educational program(s) you are offering for teach-out has already
been approved by the Department, or if these programs fall within your
institution's scope of approval. If you have any questions as to whether
your institution needs to receive approval from the Department to offer
a teach-out, please contact the Case Management Team serving your State
listed in the appendix to this guide.

A school will not need approval from the Department to award aid to
students that transfer into that school, provided the school has
received the Department's approval of its educational programs and the
school is current on its reporting requirements for its educational
programs

> **Approvals - Locations**

![](media/image8.wmf){width="6.25in" height="1.4166666666666667in"}If
your institution is teaching out the students from a closed school and
wishes to use a location of the school that closed for the purpose and
duration of the teach-out, your institution will need to have this
location approved by the State authorizing agency, and accreditor.

With these approvals, the school will need to either notify the
Department or apply for approval for the use of the location and notify
the Department that the school is only using this location for the
purpose and duration of the teach-out.[^1] The school needs to notify or
apply through the electronic application that is accessible at
www.eligcert.ed.gov. If the school enrolls, or plans to enroll new
students, even through a transfer situation where students from the
closed school transfer to the school that is using the closed school's
location, it must have notified the Department or have obtained its
approval before it awards any Title IV aid to those new students.

![](media/image9.wmf){width="3.0833333333333335in"
height="3.5833333333333335in"}If a school wishes to use a location of a
school that closed, the school must be aware that any use of that
location for Title IV purposes that goes beyond the purpose and duration
of the teach-out mentioned above, that institution will be responsible
for any Title IV liabilities of the closed school, unless; 1) the school
did not receive any assets from the school that closed or; 2) the school
does not award Title IV aid to students at that location for at least
two years from the date the prior school closed. Assets may include the
building, equipment, staff, etc. If you have any questions as to whether
your institution would be subject to any liability from the use of a
closed school's location, please contact the Case Management Team for
your State listed in the appendix to this guide.

**Determining Eligibility and Awarding Aid**

![](media/image10.wmf){width="2.4305555555555554in"
height="2.0833333333333335in"}

In a teach-out situation, the cost of education for the students being
taught out will be based on the costs established under the terms of the
teach-out agreement. Unless the teach-out agreement provides for the
transfer of Title IV monies from the closed school to the school
conducting the teach-out, the school conducting the teach-out must
determine eligibility and process of any *remaining* Title IV funds for
which the students are eligible in the academic year. Using the cost of
education established under the terms of the teach-out agreement and the
student's expected family contribution, the school conducting the
teach-out must certify and process any remaining Title IV aid for which
its teach-out students may qualify up to the applicable annual or award
year limits. If the school conducting the teach-out participates in the
campus-based programs, any undisbursed FWS or SEOG commitments may be
disbursed by the school conducting the teach-out if; 1) the funds are
used only for those students from the closed school who were receiving
the remainder of their education at the new school during the current
award year; and, 2) the new school had to submit to ED documentation of
the amount of additional FWS and FSEOG funds that are needed only for
the closed school teach-out students.

![](media/image11.wmf){width="7.333333333333333in"
height="8.794444444444444in"}

The school must send a request to have the closed school's applicable
FWS and SEOG monies to their Case Management Team along with
documentation to support the FWS and SEOG awards

A student who transfers to a school to complete his or her education,
whether or not the program of study is similar to the program of study
in which the student was enrolled at the school that closed, will have
his or her eligibility for Title IV aid determined like that of any
other student. Any Pell Grant monies received by that student to attend
the school that closed will count against the student's Pell Grant
funding for that award year. Any Direct Loan or Federal Family Education
Loan monies that are not discharged will be counted against the annual
or aggregate borrowing limits under those program.

> ![](media/image12.wmf){width="2.0833333333333335in"
> height="1.6666666666666667in"}**Questions and Answers**

Q: Can a school certify or originate a Federal Family Education Loan or
Direct Loan for a student who has no remaining loan eligibility under
the annual or aggregate loan limits who has applied for a discharge of
his or her loan obligations he or she incurred to attend the closed
school?

A: No. A school may not certify or originate a loan for a student with
no remaining loan eligibility under the annual or aggregate loan limits
until the loan discharge application has been approved, and the debt
discharged, by the Department or applicable guaranty agency.

![](media/image12.wmf){width="0.8333333333333334in" height="0.75in"}

Q: Can a school with Title IV eligibility provide a teach-out or credit
transfer option to a closed school's students at the location of the
closed school?

A: Yes. Schools considering providing training at the location of a
closed school, after receiving approval from their Accrediting body and
State authorizing agency, must notify or receive approval from the
Department before initiating training at the site of a closed school and
approving or disbursing Title IV aid.

However, if a school uses a location of a closed school to enroll new
students or provide programs of study other than those provided for
under a teach-out agreement, the school must assume any Title IV related
liabilities created by the closed school if the school acquired any of
the assets of the closed school. For example, a school which negotiates
new building or equipment leases with parties other than the ownership
of a closed school or an intermediary may not be assuming assets of the
closed school. The school is encouraged to work with its case management
team to resolve any questions regarding the acquisition of the closed
school's assets prior to the use of the any of closed school's locations
to assure that it does not incur an unexpected liability.

![](media/image12.wmf){width="0.8333333333333334in" height="0.75in"}

Q: If a school does wish to provide training at the site of a closed
school, can it continue to provide training at the location after
completing teach-out activities for the closed school's students?

A: Depending on the circumstances and the level of approvals granted by
the school's Accrediting body and State oversight agency, the Department
may approve the school to provide training at the closed school's
location only for the duration of the teach-out [or]{.underline} it may
grant general approval as an additional location so that the school may
continue to provide training at the location indefinitely. In the latter
case, in addition to assisting students from the closed school complete
their programs, the school may also introduce new programs at the
location, and enroll new students.

![](media/image12.wmf){width="0.8333333333333334in" height="0.75in"}Q:
If a school does not have current Departmental approval to offer Title
IV aid to students enrolled in the same or a similar educational program
or is not approved to provide a program of at least the same educational
level as a program offered by the closed school, can it still provide a
teach-out for students who were enrolled at the closed school?

A: Yes. The school may offer a teach-out provided it has the necessary
approvals from its State authorizing agency and its Accrediting body.
However, the school will need to obtain the Department's approval to
offer Title IV aid to any students enrolled in a teach-out program if
the institution does not have the Department's approval to offer a same
or similar program or if the teach-out program is at a higher
educational level than the educational level the Department has approved
the school to offer for Title IV purposes.

For example, if the closed school provided an associate's degree
program, but the school wanting to assist the closed school's students
enrolled in that program currently has Departmental approval to provide
only one-year, non-degree programs, the school must secure the
Department's approval to offer the associate degree program before it
may offer Title IV aid to those students.

![](media/image12.wmf){width="0.8333333333333334in" height="0.75in"}

Q: Can a school that teaches similar programs but which is not currently
eligible to participate in the Title IV programs assist students
affected by a school closure complete their original or a similar
program?

A: Yes, but those students would not be eligible for any remaining Title
IV funds which might be needed to complete their programs. In order for
a student to be able to access Title IV funds, the institution the
student is attending must be considered by the Department to be a Title
IV eligible institution.

![](media/image12.wmf){width="0.8333333333333334in" height="0.75in"}

Q: How does a Title IV eligible school apply to the Department for
approval of new programs, locations, or increased level of program
offerings in order to assist students affected by school closure
complete their programs?

A: The school uses ED's electronic application for approval to
participate in the Federal Student Aid programs which is available at:
[http://eligcert.ed.gov/.]{.underline} The school should contact its
Case Management Team if it needs assistance accessing or completing the
electronic application.

### ![](media/image12.wmf){width="0.8333333333333334in" height="0.75in"}Q: Will Title IV funds received by student's enrolled in a teach-out situation affect the teach-out schools' 90/10 calculation?

### 

### A: Title IV funds that are processed by the institution conducting the teach-out are generally considered part of its Title IV revenue for purposes of the institution's 90/10 calculation. However, if a teach-out agreement provides that any Title IV funds attributed to a closed school are to be forwarded to the teach-out school on behalf of the closed school's students being taught-out, these funds will not be treated as Title IV revenues in the teach-out school's 90/10 calculation. However, there may be other instances where Title IV revenues would not be included in the school's 90/10 ratio under a teach-out agreement. These instances will be determined by ED on a case-by-case basis. If a school conducting a teach-out believes that the Title IV funds it receives under the teach-out agreement should not be included in its 90/10 calculation, it should contact its Case Management Team for a written determination

[^1]: A school must receive ED approval to use a location if the
    school: 1) is provisionally certified, 2) is on a cash monitoring or
    reimbursement payment method, 3) would be subject to a loss of
    eligibility based on its default rates if it added the location, 4)
    acquired the assets of another institution that participated in the
    Title IV programs and provided educational programs at that location
    during the preceding year, and 5) ED has otherwise prohibited the
    institution from disbursing Title IV funds without prior approval.
