This report highlights some key areas, including how satisfaction levels differ by student demographic variables, how satisfaction varies by institutional choice, and whether today’s students— if they had to do it all over—would choose the campuses they currently attend.

  • Westwood College Borrower Defense Executive Summary
    Westwood College Borrower Defense Executive Summary Pursuant to 34 C.F.R. §685.222(e)(3), the Department of Education (“Department”) is charged with conducting a fact-finding process to determine whether each borrower defense application states a basis for a borrower defense. In adjudicating each individual borrower defense application, the Department must consider not only the borrower’s application and accompanying evidence, but also any relevant information in records in the possession of the Department and in submissions from the school, as well as any other information obtained in connection with the fact-finding process. The Borrower Defense Group (“BDG”) has completed a review of the evidence within the Department’s possession relating to Westwood College (“Westwood”) as it relates to four issues: 1) Westwood’s operational and procedural history; 2) Westwood’s aggressive recruitment practices; 3) Westwood’s misrepresentations about borrowers’ employment prospects in law enforcement in Illinois if enrolled in Westwood’s Criminal Justice program; and 4) Westwood’s misrepresentations about the transferability of Westwood’s credits. Additional summaries regarding specific types of borrower claims are forthcoming and will be submitted for approval separately. Westwood operated campuses in six states and operated an online program. In 2010, Westwood enrolled approximately 19,190 students. To date, the Department has received over 5,000 borrower defense applications relating to Westwood. Applying a preponderance of the evidence standard, BDG has prepared a series of summaries of the evidence relating to Westwood. Together, these summaries form a common statement of facts that will be applied in the individual adjudication of borrower defense applications from Westwood borrowers that are adjudicated pursuant to 34 C.F.R.

  • 2010 Competitors
    Colorado Community College System Competition from For-Profit Colleges MAY 2010 1 Nationally and in Colorado, for-profit colleges are growing faster than ever before. Thirty years ago, for-profit colleges were mostly mom and pop operations with a few small degree-granting colleges. Since then, the for-profit sector has grown and consolidated. The sector is booming, with an estimated $26 billion in revenues in 2009. Enrollment in the for-profit sector has grown by an average 9 percent per year compared with only 1.5 percent for all institutions of higher education in the U.S. including two- year and four-year institutions. Of the roughly 3,000 for-profit institutions nationally, 40 percent are owned by one of 13 large, publicly traded companies.1 The biggest for-profit college corporation is the Apollo Group with 455,600 students. This company is larger than the entire undergraduate enrollment of the Big Ten universities. 2 The Apollo Group owns the University of Phoenix. According to data provided by The Chronicle of Higher Education, the largest for-profit colleges’ estimated national enrollment growth from fall 2008 to fall 2009 averaged over 22 percent.3 This compares to enrollment growth in the Colorado Community Colleges of 19 percent. The number of for-profit colleges offering two-year degrees and certificates in Colorado has increased from 33 in 2005 to 52 in 2008, the most recent year for which data are available. For-profit colleges spend significant resources on advertising, marketing and recruitment. The Chronicle of Higher Education reported that the Apollo Group spent 20 percent of its total net revenue on selling and promotional expenses.4 Advertisements bombard potential students on the television, radio, bill boards, and in the electronic media on related websites like job-search sites.

  • Written Comments: Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges And
    Written comments: Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools Ben Miller, Senior Director, Postsecondary Education Center for American Progress 1333 H ST NW, 10th Floor [email protected] Dear Members of the National Advisory Committee on Institutional Quality and Integrity and the U.S. Department of Education, Thank you very much for the opportunity to submit public comments for the upcoming NACIQI meeting. The decisions made at this gathering will have significant consequences for the future effectiveness of accreditation. They will also signal whether NACIQI and the U.S. Department of Education can engage in a meaningful process that pushes accreditation agencies to maintain rigorous standards and demonstrates there are severe consequences for failing to do so. Conversely, poor choices at this meeting would signal to troubled accreditation agencies that low-quality standards and processes are acceptable, regardless of the massive financial harm done to students and taxpayers. No single choice made by NACIQI and the Department of Education is more important to the future of higher education accreditation than what your committee decides with respect to the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS). In particular, this comment lays out the case for why NACIQI and the Department of Education should no longer recognize ACICS as an agency that allows institutions to participate in the federal student aid programs. By several measures ACICS is one of the larger accreditation agencies and the largest that operates across the entire country. Last year, it provided access to approximately $3.4 billion in federal financial aid, making it the largest accreditation agency that operates on a national scope.1 According to the U.S.
