(a) If an approved course of instruction is discontinued for any reason, the commission shall be notified within 72 business hours (9 days) of discontinuance and furnished with the names and addresses of any students who were prevented from completion of the course of instruction due to discontinuance. Should the school fail to make arrangements satisfactory to the students and the commission for the completion of the course of instruction, the full amount of all tuition and fees paid by the students are then due and refundable. Any course of instruction discontinued will be removed from the list of approved courses of instruction.
(b) The commission may suspend enrollments in a particular course of instruction at any time the commission finds cause. For purposes of this subsection, cause includes, but is not limited to:
(1) inadequate instruction;
(2) unapproved or inadequate curriculum;
(3) inadequate equipment; or
(4) inadequate facilities.
(c) If a school begins teaching a course of instruction or revised course of instruction that has not been approved by the commission, the commission may require the school to refund to the enrolled students all or a portion of the tuition fees.
