The Department of Education (ED) said that it would not issue any final metrics for the Gainful Employment (GE) and Financial Value Transparency (FVT) institutional reporting requirements before the fall due to an ongoing legal challenge to the data collection process and the new administration's desire for more time to evaluate the case.
The updated timeline comes from a new legal filing in which a federal judge required the department to outline, within 90 days, its position on the GE/FVT regulations implemented by the Biden administration.
As the department’s declarant explains, incoming officials in the new administration have not yet had time to familiarize themselves with the challenged regulations, or make any decisions regarding their ongoing implementation or potential reevaluation.
The ruling does not impact the current reporting deadline of February 18, which remains open for institutions that were unable to complete their GE/FVT reporting by the original January 15 deadline.
