Essential Points on This Form

What is the purpose of the Indiana State 51804 form?

The Indiana State 51804 form is used to report quarterly contributions to the Career College Student Assurance Fund. This fund provides financial protection to students enrolled in postsecondary proprietary institutions in Indiana. If a student suffers a loss due to specific occurrences outlined in the relevant statutes, this fund can offer indemnification. Institutions must submit this form along with their payment to ensure compliance with state regulations.

Who is required to submit the Indiana State 51804 form?

All postsecondary proprietary educational institutions operating in Indiana must submit the Indiana State 51804 form. Each campus location requires a separate form. This is necessary for institutions that are required to have a surety bond for accreditation. Failure to submit the form can lead to consequences, including the suspension or revocation of institutional accreditation.

How is the required contribution to the fund calculated?

The required contribution consists of two components: a percentage of net tuition earned and a fixed fee. Specifically, institutions must calculate their net tuition by taking the total gross tuition and instructional fees received, subtracting any refunds issued, and then multiplying the result by 0.1%. Additionally, a fee of $60 is added to this amount. The total payment for the quarter is the sum of these two figures.

When is the payment due for the Indiana State 51804 form?

Payments for the Indiana State 51804 form are due 45 days after the close of the quarterly reporting period. The quarters are defined as follows: January 1 to March 31, April 1 to June 30, July 1 to September 30, and October 1 to December 31.
