Find closures, admission pauses, teach-outs, and approval changes. Each record states exactly what happened.
Program closed means an official source says operations ended. Paused or suspended means new admissions stopped, but the action may not be permanent. Teach-out means existing students are being taken to completion. Approval withdrawn means a regulator ended permission to operate as an approved program. Accreditation withdrawn does not, by itself, prove closure.

Coverage started with nursing boards. It now includes law, teaching, cosmetology, allied health, and other licensed programs when regulators publish named approval, teach-out, and closure actions.
IPEDS program-offering and completions changes are used only to find records that need review. An action is published only after confirmation by a regulator, accreditor, institution, or government record.
The table contains named nursing, CAAHEP, CoARC, ABA, and separately labeled 2024–2026 reported actions. Other sources are listed as future work, not current coverage.

Approved degree terminations with institution, credential, CIP code, approval month, and requested effective term
Administrative deactivations remain separate from permanent terminations and are not included in this count.Named approved teach-out plans for law schools and branch campuses
Teach-out approval is closure-related but remains distinct from the final date instruction ceased.Named U.S. nursing programs, award level, location, and effective withdrawal date
Accreditation withdrawal does not by itself prove program closure; non-U.S. programs are excluded.Named closures, completed teach-outs, admissions stops, and regulatory actions
Published meeting materials require record-by-record extraction.Named approval withdrawals, voluntary closures, warnings, and conditional approvals
Approval withdrawal is legally consequential but should remain distinct from a documented closure date.Named voluntary withdrawals, inactive statuses, probation, and Board accreditation actions
Voluntary accreditation withdrawal does not by itself prove program closure.Named respiratory-care accreditation actions with program numbers and effective dates
The report describes accreditation status; closure requires additional evidence.Accreditation status reported by recognized agencies
Agency-reported information is not audited by the Department.Programs with reported awards by CIP code and award level
Absence of completions does not prove a program closed.Documented discontinuation of 25% or more of programs
The guidance describes reporting requirements; it is not a public national event feed.Named programmatic withdrawal, denial, warning, probation, and other accreditor actions
Accreditation withdrawal is not automatically a program closure; the underlying accreditor action must be reviewed.Withdrawal, probation, show-cause, teach-out, and named program actions
Formats, action definitions, and historical availability vary by agency.Approval withdrawal, closure, and student-protection notices
No single standardized national feed exists.
