What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A private school agent in Alabama is a representative who, for a private postsecondary school, solicits or enrolls students. The Alabama Community College System (ACCS) issues the agent permit, and Ala. Code §16-46 conditions it on a $2,500 surety bond.
The bond is a student-protection guarantee: it protects any student who suffers loss from the agent’s misrepresentation, false advertising, breach of contract, or soliciting without a permit. Students who are harmed can file a complaint with ACCS and recover against the bond.
It is a three-party arrangement — you (the principal), the surety, and the State of Alabama through ACCS, with prospective students as the protected parties. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety — agents who represent schools honestly treat the bond as a routine permit formality.
