Title 59 - Education
CHAPTER 58 - NONPUBLIC POST-SECONDARY INSTITUTION LICENSING
SECTION 59-58-110. Procedure for denial, revocation, or suspension of license; notice; probation.

(A) Before a final proceeding to deny, revoke, or suspend a license or permit, the commission shall give to the person to be affected by the decision notice of facts and conduct which warrant the intended action and an opportunity to show compliance with the minimum requirements for a license or permit. If the commission determines that the violations are habitual, wilful, and therefore likely to reoccur, the commission may proceed with denial or revocation though the institution complies or agrees to comply with the standards for licensure.

(B) In any final agency proceeding to deny a license or permit to any person properly applying for one, or to revoke or suspend the license or permit of any licensee or permit holder, the commission shall give the person to be affected by the intended action notice an opportunity for a hearing as provided in the Administrative Procedures Act.

(C) The commission may give the institution a period of probation if in its judgment any unsatisfactory condition can reasonably be corrected within such time. The commission may also require that an institution delay a new class term.
