T
he Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS) provides the Summary of Key Operating
Statistics (KOS) as an annual review of the performance and key measurements of the more than 850 private post-secondary institutions we accredit. This edition of the KOS contains information based on the 2010 Annual Institutional Reports (AIR) submitted by ACICS-accredited institutions. It reflects activity during a reporting year that begins on July 1 and concludes on June 30. With each submission of the AIR, accredited institutions provide comprehensive back-up information ACICS uses during on-site evaluation visits to verify the accuracy of the data. This report also includes summary information regarding financial conditions of ACICS institutions. The information is derived from the Annual Financial Report (AFR) provided to ACICS after each fiscal year. ACICS looks forward to working with member institutions to strengthen educational outcomes and to ensure that high-quality education is available to more than 800,000 students enrolled at ACICS-accredited institutions.

PROGRAM CONTACT HOURS/TUITION & FEES
ACICS is required to monitor the average program lengths and tuition and fees of similar programs of study of its accredited institutions in order to maintain compliance with the U.S. Department of Education accrediting agency recognition provisions. In keeping with this requirement, Section 2-1-807 of the Accreditation Criteria, Program Length and Tuition and Fees, states that the Council will collect and provide data relative to program length and tuition and fees to all ACICS-accredited institutions. The charts on the following pages identify the average program length and tuition and fees charged by credential for selected programs. The data were derived from the statistical information reported on the 2010 Annual Institutional Reports (AIR) by all ACICS-accredited institutions. The program codes given correspond with those used to report program data on the AIR. To maintain confidentiality, ACICS does not publish information for programs that are offered by fewer than ten institutions (regardless of credential level).

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT DATA
The summary data were supplied by ACICS-accredited institutions through the Annual Financial Report (AFR). The AFR, which is an unaudited statement, is submitted each year 180 days after the conclusion of the institution’s fiscal year. This document includes statements collected for the fiscal year-end dates from July 31, 2009 through June 30, 2010. The ratios are derived from total institutional revenues and expenses aggregated to illustrate operating figures and averages of all member institutions, both for-profit and not-for-profit institutions. They do not purport to be industry-wide statistics. The chart of accounts used is prescribed by ACICS. Nearly all of the reported results are verified by audited financial statements. All results are reported using the accrual method of accounting. Multiple institutions can be owned or controlled by one corporation. This results in fewer balance sheets to summarize than income statements.
