Title: Title IV Eligibility issues 
Abstract:

The Department proposes to address Title IV eligibility issues to remove requirements that unnecessarily target faith-based or for-profit institutions and interfere with efficient and beneficial mergers, sales, and transfers of institutions of higher education. Such issues to be addressed in the context of institutional eligibility for participation of Federal student financial aid include rules governing change of ownership, cash management, administrative capability standards, and financial responsibility requirements.
