In 1992, Mississippi Senate Bill 2636 transferred the administration of Proprietary School and College Registration from the State Department of Education to the Commission on Proprietary School and College Registration under the Mississippi Community College Board. The Commission on Proprietary School and College Registration established these regulations to implement Title 75, Chapter 60 of the Mississippi Code of 1972, as amended.
The purpose of the Mississippi Proprietary School and College Registration Law and associated regulations is to allow proprietary institutions that have adequate facilities, resources, and faculty, the opportunity to obtain a Certificate of Registration. The law and regulations are further designed to ensure that students are provided learning experiences that are conducive to the achievement of the objectives of the programs being provided to them in exchange for their enrollment fees.
