How do the 1998 Amendments to the Higher
Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA), affect the guidance provided in this Guide? At the time this Guide went to print, the final regulations implementing changes to the cohort default rate process made by the 1998 Amendments to the HEA had not yet been finalized. However, the Department has taken every effort to incorporate into this Guide the relevant changes that were adopted during the negotiated rule-making process and public comment period. If the final regulations conflict with the guidance outlined in this Guide, the final regulations take precedence. Therefore, a school must consult the final regulations to ensure it meets all legal requirements.
