About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Mississippi licenses proprietary (private vocational and career) schools through the Commission on Proprietary School and College Registration under the Proprietary Schools and Colleges law (Mississippi Code chapter 75-60). A school's certificate of registration is conditioned on a $50,000 surety bond.

The bond is a student-protection guarantee. Under Miss. Code § 75-60-17, it indemnifies any person who suffers loss as a result of a false certification, a school closing, or fraud or misrepresentation used to procure enrollment — including the repayment of tuition paid in advance by a student.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Mississippi (the obligee), with your students as the protected parties. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety — schools that deliver the training students paid for treat the bond as a registration formality.

Miss. Code § 75-60-17 (CPSCR bond)Mississippi Code § 75-60-17 conditions a proprietary school's certificate of registration on a surety bond — $50,000 — in a form prescribed by the Commission on Proprietary School and College Registration, with a corporate surety approved by the Department of Insurance. The bond indemnifies any person suffering loss from a false certification, school closure, or fraud or misrepresentation used to procure enrollment, including repayment of tuition paid in advance.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

Do I pay the $50,000? +
No. You pay $1,500 — the flat 3% of the bond amount. The $50,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the state and harmed students; it's not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Who requires this bond? +
The Commission on Proprietary School and College Registration requires it as a condition of a certificate of registration, under Miss. Code § 75-60-17. No active bond, no registration.
What does the bond protect against? +
Student losses — false certification, a school closing, or fraud or misrepresentation used to procure enrollment, including the repayment of tuition paid in advance. If the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Is there a credit check? +
Yes — one soft credit pull, which never affects your score. It's the only extra step beyond the application, and it informs approval, not price. The rate is a flat 3% either way: credit can affect whether we approve the bond, never what it costs.
When does it renew? +
Terms run 1, 2, or 3 years — your choice at purchase. You'll get renewal notices 60 and 30 days before expiration, with autopay available, and the bond must stay active for your registration to stay valid.
