Bill overview
This bill, the Ensuring Distance Education Act, changes how revenue from online and hybrid education programs is calculated for for-profit colleges. Currently, these programs are excluded from being counted as ‘non-federal revenue’ under a rule called the 90/10 rule, which requires these institutions to receive at least 10% of their funding from sources other than federal aid. The bill removes this restriction, allowing revenue from distance education to be included in determining whether a college meets this requirement. This could potentially impact the financial standing of for-profit colleges.
