§1762 Review of Institutions and Other Entities Authorized to Enroll or Sponsor Certain Nonimmigrants

Summary

Every two years, starting not later than two years after May 14, 2002, the Commissioner of Immigration and Naturalization, working with the Secretary of Education, must review schools certified to enroll nonimmigrants in the F, M, or J categories. The reviews must check whether those schools follow the recordkeeping and reporting rules for those nonimmigrants under section 1101(a)(15)(F), (M), or (J) and the rules in section 1372. Also every two years, starting on the same schedule, the Secretary of State must review entities that sponsor exchange visitors (J). The Secretary checks the same recordkeeping and reporting requirements. If a school or sponsor seriously fails to follow those rules, the Commissioner (for schools) or the Secretary of State (for sponsors) must either suspend approval for at least one year or end the approval.
