  23. What the Data Tells Us About Proprietary College Students • High percentage low income • High percentage minority • Typically not recent high school graduate • Are most likely pursuing a 2 year degree • Are primarily located in New York City • Rely heavily upon State and federal student financial aid to attend college • Higher 3 year associate graduation rate than statewide average, lower baccalaureate graduation rate than statewide average • Are taught primarily by part-time faculty September 2006 NYS Education Department 22 NYS Education Department

  24. Next Steps Draft Regulations to Implement Recommendations 1 and 2 from May 2005 Report Recommendation 1 Require a transition period before new higher education institutions in New York State are given final authority to award degrees to ensure that standards of quality are upheld and students are appropriately served at proprietary colleges during periods of transition. This recommendation would also limit any expansion during the provisional period. Recommendation 2 Require that the sale of degree-granting proprietary institutions in New York State be approved by the Education Department prior to purchase and that the new owners demonstrate capacity to meet the education and fiscal standards to operate the institution before ownership is established. Draft Regulations to be Presented at the October Meeting September 2006 NYS Education Department 23 NYS Education Department

  25. Next Steps Comments from the FieldRecommendations 1 and 2 • “APC strongly supports the concept of a required transition period before additional institutions are given final authority to confer degrees.” • Clarify what is meant by “expansion” and “new” institutions. • Provide an exemption for transfers of ownership or control within a family. • “The provisions are sensible and ensure that the profit motive at such institutions does not dilute the academic standards.” • “…the education of New York’s students is a serious commitment requiring demonstrated competency and expertise…” • “An exception [should] be made for publicly held companies.” September 2006 NYS Education Department 24 NYS Education Department

  26. Next Steps Draft Regulations to Implement Recommendations 4 and 5 from May 2005 Report Recommendation 4 Clearly define and differentiate remedial and developmental coursework from credit-bearing college coursework to ensure that students are appropriately prepared to succeed and to graduate. Recommendation 5 Strengthen admissions policies. Ensure prospective college students, especially those without a high school diploma or GED, have accurate information on the college, job placement, and/or transfer opportunities necessary to make educated enrollment decisions. Regulations will be Drafted for the Regents Consideration in Spring 2007 September 2006 NYS Education Department 25 NYS Education Department

  27. Next Steps Comments from the FieldRecommendations 4 and 5 • “The distinction between credit and non-credit work should be clear and defensible.” • “A clear delineation of collegiate and pre-collegiate course content is essential to an institution’s academic integrity as well as the academic success of its students.” • A requirement that all admissions representatives have a four-year degree would pose a financial hardship.” September 2006 NYS Education Department 26 NYS Education Department
