About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the blanket agent bond actually covers

Kentucky regulates for-profit schools through the Commission on Proprietary Education (the former State Board for Proprietary Education). Under KRS 165A.350 and 791 KAR 1:150, a school must maintain an agent surety bond for each agent who recruits or enrolls students — or, where there is more than one agent, a single blanket agent bond.

The bond is at least $5,000 for each agent the school employs, so a blanket bond scales with the size of the recruiting team. It protects students and the Commission against losses caused by an agent’s misrepresentations or violations of the proprietary-education law.

These bonds run with the school’s license and generally expire annually on June 30, coinciding with the license term. In lieu of a surety bond, the Commission can accept an irrevocable letter of credit or other approved collateral — but a surety bond is usually cheapest. The application collects no credit information, and most applicants qualify at or near the $100 minimum.

Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information, and most applications approve instantly. Larger bond amounts may get a quick soft-pull review — never a hard inquiry, no impact on your score.
When does it expire?These bonds generally expire annually on June 30, coinciding with the proprietary school license. We send renewal notices ahead of the deadline so the bond stays continuous with your license.
