Dive Brief:

• The City College of San Francisco crisis seems to have been averted, for now, with new rules proposed that would give the school up to 28 months to comply with accreditation requirements.
• The new rules were proposed Wednesday by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges, which previously gave CCSF a July 31 deadline to fix significant financial and governance problems.
• The proposed policy, which is expected to be finalized soon after a June 25 public comment deadline, would allow any college to apply for its accreditation to be restored before it is revoked. 

Dive Insight:

Under the commission’s proposed rules, once the college in question has applied for restoration, the commission would re-evaluate the college within four months and then give it two years to come into full compliance. CCSF administrators have previously stated that they needed about 18 months to do so.
