Georgia Nonpublic Postsecondary Educational Institution Bond

The Georgia Nonpublic Postsecondary Educational Institution Bond is required by the State of Georgia, Nonpublic Secondary Education Commission. The bond states that you agree to follow the Nonpublic Postsecondary Educational Act of 1990.

It can also refer to any public or private postsecondary educational institution legally operating in another state or nation that conducts postsecondary activities in Georgia or offers postsecondary instruction leading to a postsecondary degree or certificate granted to Georgia students from a location outside Georgia.
