Student Tuition Recovery Fund

California Education Code 94316.10(a) and 73750 require that the catalog includes a description of the student’s rights under the Student Tuition Recovery Fund (STRF) established pursuant to 94342.

The Student Tuition Recovery Fund (STRF) was established by the State Legislature to protect any California resident who attends a post secondary institution and prepays their tuition and suffers a financial loss as a result of the school closing, failing to live up to its enrollment agreement, or refusing to pay a court judgment.

To be eligible for STRF, you must be a “California resident” and reside in California at the time the enrollment agreement is signed or when you receive lessons at a California mailing address from an approved institution offering correspondence instruction. Students who are temporarily residing in California for the sole purpose of pursuing an education, specifically those who hold student visas, are not considered a “California resident.”

To qualify for a STRF reimbursement you must file a STRF application within one year of receiving notice from the Bureau that the school is closed. If you do not receive notice from the Bureau, you have 4 years from the date of closure to file a STRF application. If a judgment is obtained, you must file a STRF application within two years of the final judgment.

It is important that you keep copies of the enrollment agreement, financial aid papers, receipts, or any other information that documents the moneys paid to the school. Questions regarding the STRF may be directed to the Bureau for Private Post Secondary and Vocational Education, P.O. Box 980818. Sacramento, CA 95798-0818, or (916) 445-3427.
