As provided by the Higher Education
Opportunity Act (Pub. L. 110-315), the regulations provide that a
proprietary institution must derive at least 10% of its annual
revenue from sources other than Title IV, HEA funds, sanctions for
failing to meet this requirement, and otherwise implement the
statute by 1) specifying a Net Present Value (NPV) formula used to
establish the revenue for institutional loans, 2) providing an
administratively easier alternative to the NPV calculation, and 3)
describing more fully the non-Title IV eligible programs from which
revenue may be counted for 90/10 purposes. The regulations require
an institution to disclose in a footnote to its audited financial
statements the amounts of Federal and non-Federal revenues, by
category, that it used in calculating its 90/10 ratio (see section
487(d) of the HEA). This request is for extending approval of
reporting requirements contained in the regulations related to the
administrative requirements of the non-Title IV revenue requirement
(90/10) program. The information collection requirements in the
regulations are necessary to determine eligibility to receive
program benefits and to prevent fraud and abuse of program
funds.
