Colleges and universities from outside the borders of Connecticut seeking to provide online educational programs to Connecticut’s students can make an application to the Office of Higher Education. The initial registration is valid until December 31, 2019. After this date, institutions are required to renew their registration on an annual basis. It’s important to note that, currently, the Office of Higher Education does not grant authorization for programs that are solely based on internships, externships, student teaching, clinical placements, field placements, or practical experience.
To initiate the application process, please fill out all the necessary fields below. Once an institution is determined as eligible, they should submit a certification endorsement document, which must be signed by their Chief Executive or Chief Academic Officer. The Office of Higher Education will notify institutions as soon as the certification endorsement document is received and all provided information is confirmed.
For institutions that are part of the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement (SARA), of which Connecticut is a member, registration is primarily for informational purposes. This data collection helps the Office of Higher Education enhance its support for Connecticut’s students. Institutions participating in SARA are not required to annually renew their registration through this process as long as their SARA membership remains active.
