What it is and who needs it.
What the school bond actually covers
Delaware licenses private business and trade schools through the Department of Education under Title 14, Chapter 85. Where a bond is required, it is a student-protection guarantee: it backs the school's express contracts with its students and its compliance with Delaware law and Department rules.
The bond is for the protection of students' contractual rights, in an amount the Department establishes that is not less than $25,000. It protects students from financial harm if the school violates a contract or its Certificate of Approval is suspended or revoked.
Because cancellation rules are strict — a surety bond can generally only be cancelled at the end of an annual term, on 45 days' written notice to the Administrator of Private Business and Trade Schools — we track your renewal and keep the filing continuous. We price the amount the Department set from $100, with your exact price shown at the application. The application collects no credit information.
