Bill overview
This bill, the Change of Ownership and Conversion Improvement Act, aims to streamline and improve the process for institutions of higher education to change ownership or for for-profit schools to convert to non-profit status. It establishes a pre-transaction review application process, requires fees for these reviews and conversions, and mandates a five-year monitoring period for converted institutions. The bill also includes reporting requirements and seeks to address staffing shortages within the Department of Education that have led to lengthy processing times for these applications.
