Failure to so comply at any time is grounds for immediate revocation of the permit of approval. Information requested by the Board must be submitted annually or, in special circumstances, at the request of the Board. Failure to do so is grounds for immediate revocation of the permit of approval. Each non-degree program of study must be approved by the Board as well. Regardless of when the program was approved, all programs of study must be approved again with the institutional approval every 5 years or in conjunction with an earlier review if so required under this Act or the administrative rules adopted in support of this Act.

The failure of a school to comply at any time during the 5-year term of the permit of approval shall be grounds for the immediate revocation of the permit of approval. Information requested by the Board must be submitted annually or, in certain circumstances, at the request of the Board. The failure of the school to submit the requested information shall be grounds for the immediate revocation of the permit of approval. Each non-degree program of study must be approved by the Board. Regardless of the date a school received initial approval of a program of study, all programs of study must be reapproved for a permit of approval at the end of each 5-year approval period or in conjunction with an earlier review if otherwise required by this Act or administrative rule.
