What types of schools are exempt from OHE’s authorization process?
There are several kinds of schools that do not need to seek approval from Connecticut’s Office of Higher Education (OHE). This means, they can operate without CT OHE approval.
Exempt from approval are:
- Schools that offer instruction under public supervision and control.
- Schools that offer instruction conducted by a firm or organization solely for the training of its own employees.
- Schools that offer instruction offered by a school approved by the General Assembly to confer degrees.
- Schools that offer instruction offered in the arts or recreation, including, but not limited to, the training of students to provide such instruction
