Minnesota conditions a private career school license on a continuous surety bond filed with the Office of Higher Education under Minn. Stat. 136A.822. The amount is 10% of the prior year’s net tuition revenue, with a $10,000 minimum. This is the partnership version — we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.

Minnesota licenses private career schools through the Office of Higher Education under Minn. Stat. ch. 136A. No license issues unless the school files a continuous corporate surety bond conditioned on the faithful performance of all contracts and agreements with students, the core promise of Minn. Stat. 136A.822.
The bond runs to the State of Minnesota and to any student with a cause of action for breach of a contract or agreement made by the school. If a school takes tuition and fails to deliver the training, or closes mid-program, harmed students can recover against the bond.
The amount is 10% of the preceding year’s net revenue from student tuition, fees, and other required institutional charges, but never less than $10,000; a school operating at multiple locations may combine revenue across locations. This is the partnership version — the partnership is the principal. Enter the figure the office calculated and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with your required bond amount — the executed private school bond is generated instantly, ready to file with the Office of Higher Education.
