Abstract: The Department of Education (the Department) requests
extension of this information collection regarding Institutional
Eligibility regulations in Sec. 600.9--State Authorization. These
regulations were a result of negotiated rulemaking in early 2019 and
the requirements to these regulations have not changed.
The regulations in Sec. 600.9(c)(2)(i) require an institution to
determine in accordance with the institution's policies and procedures
in which State a student is located while enrolled in a distance
education or correspondence course, under either State jurisdiction or
when the institution participates in a State authorization reciprocity
agreement under which it is covered.
[[Page 73545]]
The updates to the policies and procedures are not reported to the
Department nor is there a specified format for such information.
The regulations in Sec. 600.9(c)(2)(ii) require an institution,
upon request from the Secretary, provide the written documentation of
its determination of a student's location, including the basis for such
determination. There is no specific form or format for the institutions
to provide this information to the Department upon request. It is
anticipated that an institution would provide the pertinent portions of
the policy and procedures manual to respond to such a request from the
Department, but it may provide the requested information in another
method.

PRA Coordinator, Strategic Collections and Clearance, Governance and
Strategy Division, Office of Chief Data Officer, Office of Planning,
