ACOE MATERIAL REVISION

• Quite laborious
• In February with Public Hearing
• Last material revision was for independent study--so students can log in online (the student can still long on and access class)
• Material enrollment is due to revision...because it is out of 10% of its enrollment projections--why? what impact is on financials? 
• We are about 16% lower than what we projected. 80% of all ACOE authorized schools are in the same place. 
• Will be a lot of work
• Vijay: Last material revision, we used a grant writer...are we budgeting for that now?
• David: Will handle this time--far less complex...as long as Bryan is helping with accounting
• Anne: Where did students go?
• David: Families left Bay Area--and moved to other places where the cost of living was lower
• Vijay: When is it due? 
• David: Material revision due in Feb. Hearing in Feb. And then, reviewed by March/April.
