STATE REGULATORY INFORMATION

Proprietary schools in Kansas are regulated by, and licensed under, the Proprietary School Act, as amended.

The law applies only to those private schools which offer instruction or study for the purpose of preparing persons for an occupation or vocation. It requires that such schools be issued a Certificate of Approval by the State Board of Education before the school can do business in this state.

The law also requires that all representatives of a proprietary school register individually with the State Board of Education.

Any contracts entered into with schools which are not authorized to do business are not binding. Also, a person who has entered into such a contract is entitled to a refund of any money paid under the contract, plus interest. Each application for a license must be made on the form provided by the State of Kansas. The school must also submit a copy of the schedule of fees, charges and tuition, and school policy governing the refund of charges.

Additional information may be obtained by contacting the State Department of Education.
