For-profit College Investigation
Did you recently receive a notice from National College regarding
job placement information? If you would like more information about
that notice and the information being sought by the Attorney General, you
may contact our office at 888-432-9257 (select option 3).
Attorney General Conway's office has filed civil lawsuits against
Daymar College and
National College, and is investigating Spencerian College, Brown-Mackie
College and three other for-profit schools.
Concerns about the for-profit school industry stem in-part from General
Conway's investigation into Daymar College and investigations of Decker College
and the American Justice School of Law. General Conway also continues to lead a
national bipartisan effort, which now includes 30 states, to examine potential
abuses within the industry. Under the Attorney General's leadership, the States
investigated
QuinStreet, Inc. regarding the website GIBill.com and reached a $2.5 million
settlement to protect veterans from deceptive recruiting practices through lead
generation websites.
"As Attorney General, it is my job to ensure that businesses operating in
Kentucky are following our Consumer Protection laws," General Conway said. "It
is also my duty to ensure that consumers are not being taken advantage of as a
result of unfair or false business practices."
If you are an employee or a student of a for-profit college operating in
Kentucky and have information or a complaint about their business practices, the

phone at 888-432-9257 (select option 3), by e-mail

case we need to follow up with questions about your comment/complaint.
