How much does a private postsecondary educational institution license bond cost in Nevada?
The Nevada Commission on Postsecondary Education (CPE) requires private postsecondary educational institutions to purchase a surety bond as part of the licensing process. The price of your bond will depend on a review of your personal financial statement and your required bond amount. The CPE will determine the bond amount after the institution is approved for licensure, though the bond must be for no less than $10,000.

Why do I need this bond?
Private postsecondary institutions provide opportunities for further education. Accreditation is not necessary for operation, though private institutions are often accredited. The bond ensures that the school provides services as promised and can reimburse students should they suffer any financial losses.
Nevada also provides a licensure evaluation form institutions can fill out and send to the CPE to determine if they need to be licensed and bonded – find it under ”Forms for Unlicensed Institutions” in the "Additional Resources" section below.
How long do I need this bond?
The bond remains in full force and effect throughout the institution’s licensure period. All claims on the bond must be resolved within 60 days. The bond can be canceled with 30 days’ written notice to the CPE, though any claims made during that time must be evaluated.
