Summary

Postsecondary schools; student records and closures. Provides that in the event of a postsecondary school closure, the school shall transfer the academic and financial records of its students to the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia or enter an agreement with another school to preserve such records. The bill also requires that a closing school develop and submit to the Council a "teachout plan," which is a written agreement between or among postsecondary schools that provides for the equitable treatment of students if one of those institutions stops offering an educational program before all students enrolled in that program complete the program. The bill finally requires the Council to deny owners certification to operate another postsecondary school in the Commonwealth if the owner does not provide an adequate teachout plan or adequate preservation of records.
