Reporting Additional Direct Assessment Programs. 34 CFR 600.21 requires
an institution to only report the addition of a second or subsequent
direct assessment program without the review and approval of the
Department when it previously been awarded such approval. The
regulations also require an institution to report the establishment of
a written arrangement between the eligible institution and an
ineligible institution or organization in which the ineligible
institution or organization would provide more than 25 percent of a
program. This information will be provided to the Secretary to ensure
that the institutions are properly reporting subsequent direct
assessment programs at the same degree level after it has had its first
direct assessment program reviewed and shown the ability to create a
program that has been approved by the Secretary. The reporting time is
10 days after the first day that the program is offered. The reporting
requirement for subsequent programs allows the Department to monitor
the growth and development of direct assessment programs.
