State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement
Notice for Out-of-State Distance Learning Students
ÓûÂþɬ has been approved to participate in the National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (SARA). SARA is a voluntary, regional approach to state oversight of postsecondary distance education. As a SARA-approved institution, ÓûÂþɬ is authorized to offer online courses in each state that is part of the agreement without having to get approval from each state individually.
ÓûÂþɬ out-of-state distance learning students residing in a SARA state may file a complaint with the Massachusetts Department of Higher Education or with a state agency in the state in which they reside. Students must first attempt to resolve their complaint using internal administrative procedures offered by ÓûÂþɬ. After all administrative remedies have been exhausted with ÓûÂþɬ, the student may submit a SARA Complaint via the link below.
