Financial Risk and Recruitment:

In late 2024 and early 2025, the Department of Education increased enforcement against institutions for "substantial misrepresentation" in marketing. Under 34 C.F.R. § 668 Subpart F, a misleading statement isn't just a lie—it’s any omission that has the likelihood to mislead. For Christian colleges, the risk often lies in using broad national salary data (like BLS averages) while implying they reflect your specific graduates’ outcomes. To reduce compliance risk in higher ed, every career claim must be tied to your own verifiable data. SKG provides higher education regulatory compliance monitoring to ensure your "mission-fit" messaging doesn't trigger a federal audit.
