Career Schools and Colleges, and Private and Out-of-State Public Postsecondary Institutions Operating in Texas each have rules related to the issuance of certificates of authority, the establishment of minimum standards, and operating requirements. The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) recently determined that by repealing both Chapter 7 and Chapter 12, consolidating and reorganizing the material into a new Chapter 7 (Degree Granting Colleges and Universities Other Than Texas Public Institutions), and adding new provisions, postsecondary institutions wishing to operate in Texas would be able to establish operations more easily and quickly without compromising safeguards for students.
