Close the Compliance Gap: Protect Your Institution with Consumer Information Assessments

Every year, the U.S. Department of Education places consumer information disclosures among the top findings in audits and program reviews. For colleges and universities, these violations are not only preventable—they are costly. Late or incomplete disclosures can jeopardize Title IV eligibility, attract regulatory scrutiny, and erode the trust of students and families.

Higher Ed Executives helps institutions move beyond check-the-box compliance. Our Consumer Information Assessments identify gaps in your disclosures and reporting processes, benchmark them against federal requirements, and provide clear, actionable guidance for correction. The result is stronger compliance posture, reduced risk in program reviews, and confidence that your students are receiving the information they need to make informed decisions.

Why Leaders Choose Higher Ed Executives

• Risk Reduction: Minimize the chance of audit findings and costly liabilities tied to disclosure failures.
• Institutional Accountability: Demonstrate to boards, accreditors, and regulators that your institution takes transparency seriously.
• Operational Clarity: Gain a roadmap for aligning financial aid, registrar, and academic offices in managing disclosure requirements.
• Student Confidence: Reinforce trust by ensuring students and families have access to accurate, timely, and complete information.

Whether your institution is preparing for an accreditation visit, an upcoming program review, or simply wants assurance that you are in step with federal regulations, a Consumer Information Assessment is an investment in compliance, reputation, and student success.

Don’t wait for findings to reveal preventable mistakes.
