State statute and the Coordinating Commission’s Rule 1 require any out-of-state institution wishing to offer courses or
programs in Nebraska to receive Commission approval. This report provides information on the current course and
program offerings as well as a historical perspective that includes institutions approved in the past but no longer offering
courses or programs in the state (available online only). Some institutions were approved over twenty years ago and have
not offered programs in Nebraska for many years. State statutes, however, do not include a sunset provision for approvals
that become inactive in subsequent years.

Notes: Kaplan University is an out-of-state institution that entered the Nebraska market by purchasing existing in-state
institutions. Therefore, they have only been reporting as a out-of-state institution for three years.

Herzing University purchased Omaha School of Massage Therapy in 2008 and began reporting as an out-of-state
institution in 2009.
