What it requires
- If you operate an institution of postsecondary education in Puerto Rico, public or private, offer guarantees for the security of your students' academic records, as a criterion for obtaining and renewing your license (Ley 212-2018, Sec. 13(i)(10)).
These lines are LexLint's reading of the law's text.
What this law does
No person may operate an institution of postsecondary education in Puerto Rico without a license from the Board of Postsecondary Institutions. The Act applies to every natural or legal person that operates in Puerto Rico a basic education institution or a postsecondary education institution. The Board approves objective licensing criteria, and one of them requires that the institution offer guarantees for the security of its students' academic records. State institutions of higher education are exempt from the license fee. The Act took effect on approval.
