Higher education is a highly regulated endeavor. As an institution of higher education, GovState must comply with numerous federal and state laws and regulations. Many of those laws and regulations require GovState to make reports or disclosures to various recipients—including the federal government, other state agencies, GovState students, GovState employees, and the general public—on a regular basis.

Below is a “Compliance Calendar” that is intended to provide general guidance to GovState’s employees regarding key dates for various reports and disclosures. Given the volume of and frequent changes to, the laws and regulations that require reporting and disclosure by universities, this Compliance Calendar should not be considered a complete listing of all GovState’s obligations. Further, there may be delays in updating the information hereon. To submit revisions or additions for the Compliance Calendar, please contact the Director of Compliance at ethicsofficer@govst.edu.
