DOE places Cooley, Albion, and Cleary universities on cash monitoring list
What happened
The Department of Education placed Cooley Law School, Albion College, and Cleary University on the Heightened Cash Monitoring list due to financial concerns. Experts note that appearing on a watch list is a warning sign of institutional struggle, though it does not necessarily mean the schools will close. Cooley Law School, for instance, previously faced significant financial pressure, shrinking its campuses and experiencing low enrollment before meeting its accreditation deadline.
