Sec.10a-22x-4. Payments from the account

(a) A school shall keep records of: (1) the name and permanent address of each student; (2) the date each student began instruction at the school; (3) the enrollment agreement of each student; (4) information about each program in which the student was or is enrolled, including the name of the program, length in clock hours or credit hours, where applicable, or for home study schools, program length in lessons, tuition paid in each calendar quarter, number of clock hours or credit hours, where applicable, of instruction or where appropriate, lessons, completed by the student at the end of each calendar quarter, date of last instruction or of program completion, and (5) other such information as required by the commissioner. These records shall be kept current and on file at the school and be available for inspection by the commissioner or his designee upon request. In the event of insolvency or cessation of operation, these records shall be transferred to the commissioner within 10 days of such insolvency or cessation of operation. In the event of seizure or confiscation of records by those legally authorized, a copy of all records of students affected by the insolvency or cessation of operation shall be sent to the commissioner.

(b) A school shall inform its students of their rights under the provisions governing the account.

(c) Application for refund shall be made on forms provided by the commissioner after determination of insolvency or cessation of operation of the school.

(d) A student in applying for a refund under the provisions of these regulations, must specify any and all sources and amounts of tuition which were paid on student's behalf. The commissioner shall direct the state treasurer to pay, per order of the comptroller, pro rata refunds to the student or appropriate individuals or organizations which paid tuition on behalf of the student.

(e) A student, as a condition of accepting the refund payment, must sign such forms as prescribed by the commissioner that subrogate to the state of Connecticut all rights of action, claims and demands which the student may have against the school for tuition reimbursement to the extent of the refund the student receives from the state.

(f) If a school's insolvency or cessation of operation renders eligible a student, governmental agency or other organization, or any person for a refund, reasonable effort must be made to acquire such a refund from such school and any refund payments for tuition from any other source made to a student as a result of this insolvency or cessation of operation shall be deducted from the obligation of the account.
