Registration Clarification

Section 13-34-107 (cited below) clarifies that the Utah Division of Consumer Protection, which is not an accrediting or licensing agency, does not recommend or comment on the quality or potential benefits of instruction at any of the schools or institutions registered under the Utah Postsecondary Proprietary School Act:

    The acceptance of a registration statement, renewal statement, or amended registration statement and issuance of certificate of registration shall not constitute, nor be represented by any person to constitute, an endorsement or approval of the institution or proprietary school by either the Board or the State of Utah.

Registered schools are asked to include the following statement in school catalogs, enrollment agreements, and websites:

    Registration under the Utah Postsecondary Proprietary School Act does not mean that the State of Utah supervises, recommends, nor accredits the institution.  It is the student's responsibility to determine whether credits, degrees, or certificates from the institution will transfer to other institutions or meet employer's training requirements.  This may be done by calling the prospective school and employer.
