1. The Commission shall not issue a license to operate an unaccredited institution which grants degrees until the institution has been evaluated by the Commission. Each existing or new institution must be evaluated at least once, but the Commission may require subsequent evaluations. 2. The Chair of the Commission shall appoint a panel of evaluators for each institution composed of representatives of institutions or businesses that are directly affected by the program and persons who significantly contribute to the evaluation because of special knowledge. The Administrator shall accompany the panel as an observer. 3. One hundred and twenty days before the meeting of the Commission at which the issuance or renewal of a license will be considered, the panel of evaluators shall present to the Administrator and to the institution a report specifying the extent to which the institution meets the standards established by the Commission, and recommending: (a) Issuance or renewal of the license with no qualifications; (b) Issuance of a provisional license; or (c) Revocation of the license. 4. The institutions response to the report must be received in the office of the Administrator no later than 90 days before the meeting at which the license will be considered. 5. If the institutions response shows progress toward meeting the standards, or if the response furnishes information which indicates that the standards are being adhered to, the representatives of the panel of evaluators shall review the institution again to verify the response and incorporate it into their report. The panel of evaluators shall make a final report to the Administrator no later than 45 days before the meeting at which the license will be considered. 6. The Administrator may recommend that the Commission accept the evaluation or that it reject the report. If the Commission rejects the panels recommendation, it shall record the specific reason for doing so in its minutes.
