Inside Higher Ed: The Trump administration on Friday released an internal staff report showing numerous failures at an accrediting body of mostly for-profit colleges whose federal recognition was restored by Education Secretary Betsy DeVos earlier this year.
That accreditor, the Accrediting Council of Independent Colleges and Schools, is seeking to permanently win back federal recognition after having it yanked by the Obama administration in 2016 following the collapse of two large for-profit college chains it oversaw. That recognition is critical to maintaining access to Title IV funds for colleges ACICS oversees, many of which have struggled to find approval elsewhere.
