received over 90,000 comments from a
wide range of stakeholders, including
for-profit universities and colleges,
community colleges, students, higher
education associations, members of
Congress, financial analysts,
economists, and college and university
faculty.
The Department appreciates the
tremendous feedback, both positive and
negative, that it received on the
proposed regulations. The response
from so many individuals and entities
demonstrates how important the issues
relating to gainful employment and this
rulemaking are. To better understand
parties’ comments and have an
opportunity to interact with
commenters, the Department will hold
four public meeting sessions over the
course of two days. During this time,
commenters who have timely submitted
comments on the NPRM may orally
present their comments to a panel of
Department representatives.
Commenters also may have an
opportunity to respond to questions
from the Department about their
comments.
Public Meeting Dates, Times, Locations,
