§ 2537.2. Prelicensure Education Provider Fees.
Pursuant to section 2881.2 of the Code, the following fees are established:
(b) The final approval fee for any applicant for approval of a new school or program of vocational nursing is fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000), unless the institution is entitled to a decrease in fees as provided in subsections (c) or (d), in which case the final approval fee shall be calculated as provided in those subsections.
(c) The final approval fee for any applicant for approval of a new school or program of vocational nursing providing documentation of the criteria of 2881.2(b)(2)(B) of the Code, is five thousand dollars ($5,000). Documentation shall include a signed and dated copy of the formal collaborative agreement between the applicant institution and an approved school or program that is in good standing, showing the applicant institution agrees to utilize the curriculum and policies of the approved school or program. For the purposes of this section “in good standing” means the approved school or program has a current and active approval with no provisional approval.
(d) In accordance with section 2526, the Board shall provide each institution an itemized invoice that shows the initial determination by the Board of the reasonable costs for providing oversight and review of an institution expressed in a total dollar value number. If the total dollar value number for the Board's reasonable costs is less than the amount set forth in subsection (b), then the final approval fee shall be reduced to that total value number and reflected in the invoice provided to the institution pursuant to section 2526.
(e) Unless the Board makes an initial determination that the continuing approval fee should be decreased in accordance with subsections (f) or (g) after receiving the application for continuing approval, the fee submitted with any continuing approval application required by section 2526 shall be five thousand dollars ($5,000).
(f) The continuing approval fee for any approved school or program of vocational nursing which provides documentation with the continuing approval application in subsection (j) of section 2526 for reduction in state funding resulting in reduced enrollment capacity is two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500).
(1) Documentation required for proof of reduction in state funding must be provided with the continuing approval application in section 2526 and include a copy of the school or program's class rosters for the current semester or term, and the previous three consecutive semesters or terms, which demonstrate a cumulative decline in enrollment of more than 10 percent.
(g) Within 30 days of the date the Board receives a completed continuing approval application as provided in section 2526, the Board shall provide each institution a fee payment statement that shows the Board's initial determination of the reasonable costs for providing oversight and review of an institution expressed in a total dollar value number. If the total dollar value number for the Board's reasonable costs is less than the amount set forth in subsection (e), then the continuing approval fee shall be reduced to that total value number. If the continuing approval fee is reduced, then the institution shall be notified of the refund for the overpayment that will be provided in accordance with section 2526.
