1Information for Students Who Attended:Virginia College, Brightwood College,Brightwood Career Institute, EcotechInstitute, Golf Academy of America, and NewEngland College of BusinessPlease note that the following is informational and educational material only. It does notconstitute legal advice nor is it tailored to any specific individual’s situation.What is going on?Education Corporation of America (ECA), the owner of the schools listed above, is in courttrying to address its financial problems and debts that contributed to multiple school closures.The court appointed a Receiver (an outsider who is managing the company) to step in andmanage the debt that ECA has been unable to pay. There are a lot of entities and people who saythat ECA owes them money, and so the Receiver asked the court to approve a “Claims Process.”You may have recently received a postcard, email, text message, or telephone message aboutthis. Essentially, this process will allow ECA and the court to figure out who ECA owes moneyto, and make decisions about how to handle the debts.What is a claims process?It is a method for a creditor to submit an application to a company to try to receive money thatthe company owes the creditor. In this case, it means that if you believe your school owes youmoney, you are allowed to submit an application to try to receive the money the school owesyou. To submit a claim, you must submit a “Claim Form” (also known as an application) withsupporting documents.What is a claim?A claim is a legal term; it is a demand for something owed or believed to be owed to a person (inother words, a right to payment). For example, if you and the school entered into a contract andthe school did not fulfill its part of the contract, you may have a claim for breach of contract.You may submit an application stating this claim to receive the money you paid the school inmaking the contract and other related expenses. Examples of other legal claims includemisrepresentation, fraud, or violations of consumer protection laws. You may want to researchthese claims to see if they apply to your situation as your circumstances may be different and thelaw differs in different states.Project on Predatory Student Lending · www.predatorystudentlending.orgMarch 2019

2What can I do?We cannot provide you with individual legal advice, but you have options available to you. Youmay: (1) file a claim, (2) contact a local legal aid organization or a local attorney for legal adviceor help with this process, (3) reach out to your state Attorney General’s Office and/or yourfederal representatives, and/or (4) apply for a Closed School Discharge or another discharge orloan cancellation option provided by the Department of Education.What if I don’t submit a claim through this process?It is possible that a court will find that any claim that you have is no longer valid if you don’tsubmit it through this process. However, if you have a claim that is covered by ECA's AIGinsurance policy, the Court has clarified that you can pursue those claims outside of this process.These claims include “breach of duty, neglect, error, statement, misstatement, misleadingstatement, or omission” by the schools or their employees, “educational malpractice or failure toeducate; negligent instruction; failure to supervise; inadequate or negligent academic guidance orcounseling; improper or inappropriate academic placement or discipline; failure to grant dueprocess; invasion of privacy or humiliation, [] violation of the Buckley Amendment, the“Uniform Student Freedom of Expression Act,” and claims related to defamation or a contractfor educational services. The policy does not provide coverage for claims regarding fraudulentacts. For a claim related to the return of tuition fees, the insurance policy only covers 80% of thetuition. In order to be covered under the policy, any claim must be made before September 3,2019. For more information, you can find the Receiver’s Expedited Motion for Order Clarifyingthat Court’s Injunction Does Not Apply to Insurance Policy on page 23 and the AIG InsurancePolicy on page 28.How long do I have to submit my claim?Students have until May 23, 2019, at 5:00pm EST. This is the deadline to submit a claim.However, if you know you won’t be able to submit a claim by this date, you may submit awritten request for an extension to the Receiver. You must submit the request before the May 23,2019 deadline.The Receiver’s name is John Flanders Kennedy and his email address is jkennedy@jbpslaw.comHow can I submit a claim?It is important to submit a complete and accurate claim form with supporting documents. TheReceiver has the right to challenge your claim, if it is not complete or accurate. Here are thesteps:Step 1: Fill out the Claim FormFill out the top section of the form then complete sections 1, 2, 3, 7, and 8. An exampleshowing what to fill out is attached to this guide.Project on Predatory Student Lending · www.predatorystudentlending.orgMarch 2019

3In section 2, the claim form asks for the “Date Claim Accrued.” This means the date theclaim came about. A claim may “accrue” on the date you knew or reasonably should have knownabout your claim. Different claims have different dates of accrual, and different states may havedifferent rules. You may want to research your state’s law.In section 3, the claim form asks for the “Basis for Claim.” You must state your claim(s)here. Your individual claim(s) depend on your individual circumstances. It is up to you whatclaim(s) you state on your claim form. We cannot provide you with individual legal advice. Ifyou want individual legal advice or help with this process, contact a local legal aid organizationor a local attorney. Some claims that may be relevant to students are: Claim: Breach of Contract – Enrollment Agreement Look at your Enrollment Agreement. Does it have a provision under “REFUNDPOLICY” that states: “Program Cancellation: If an institution cancels a programsubsequent to a student’s enrollment, the institution must refund all monies paidby the student?” Did the school close while you were enrolled and fail to refundyou all your money? You may have a claim for breach of contract. Does your Enrollment Agreement have a provision under “INTEGRATION” thatstates: “This Contract (along with the Catalog, each as in effect from time to time)is and shall constitute the entire agreement between the Student (and, ifapplicable, his/her parent or legal guardian) and the College?” This means yourschool’s catalog could be seen as a part of your contract with the school. If yourschool failed to make good on its promises in the catalog, you may have a claimfor breach of contract. Claim: Breach of Contract – Student Notification Acknowledgement Before your school closed, did it make you sign an agreement that stated theschool would stay open until a specific date and promise to provide you with arefund, help to transfer to another school, and/or help to find employment? Wereyou provided with these resources? If not, you may have a claim for breach ofcontract.If you submitted a Closed School Discharge or Borrower Defense application, or any otherlegal or administrative proceeding, you must also complete section 6. If you are working with anadvocate or an attorney, include her information in section 6. You likely don’t have to fill outsections 4 and 5.Step 2: Include Supporting Documents or Explain Why You Don’t Have AnyYou should include documents relevant to your claim in your application. You may want tosubmit your Enrollment Agreement, your school’s catalog, a copy of your loan statementsshowing the amount of federal student aid and/or private loans you used for your education,expenses for books, background checks, and immunizations, and/or loss of wages. Some of thesedocuments are available online:Project on Predatory Student Lending · www.predatorystudentlending.orgMarch 2019

4 Your Enrollment Agreement, along with other documents from your school are on yourschool’s portalYour school’s catalog is on https://www.ecacolleges.com/Your federal loan information is on the National Student Loan Data System website https://nslds.ed.gov/nslds/nslds SA/Your private loan information is with your loan servicer (other information is on yourcredit report)Reminder: If you don’t have supporting documents, you should explain why not. Also, makesure you redact your documents by removing or hiding confidential or sensitive information thatmay be on the documents.Step 3: Submit the application to OmniYou must submit your application to Omni Management Group, a company ECA hired tohelp with the claims process. Your application must be received or postmarked on or before theMay 23, 2019 deadline. YOU CANNOT FAX OR EMAIL IT. Instead, you may (1) submit itonline at https://omnimgt.com/eca or (2) mail, hand deliver, or use a courier service to theaddress provided on the Notice of Claims and Process form:Education Corporation of America Claims Processingc/o Omni Management Group5955 DeSoto Ave., Suite 100Woodland Hills, CA 91367How much money will I get back?There is no guarantee that you will get a specific amount, or anything back at all. After yousubmit your application, the Receiver will evaluate your claim. If the Receiver determines thatyou have a claim, the school may pay you something, but the school owes a lot of money –probably much more than it can afford to pay – and it may not pay anything at all. After theReceiver determines the amount owed to you, you may challenge his decision by submitting awritten statement. If you and the Receiver cannot resolve the issue, the court may resolve it.Where can I find more information about the claims process?Additional resources and information are available at https://omnimgt.com/eca. Specifically, the“Order Approving Receiver’s Motion for Entry of An Order” has deadlines, information aboutwhat happens after you submit a claim, specific procedures to challenge the Receiver’s actions orask for more time to submit a claim, and more. It starts on page 7 of this document. If you havequestions about the claims process, you can contact Omni at 888-204-0736 or onhttps://omnimgt.com/eca on the “Submit an Inquiry” page.Do you have an example?Please see page 5 for a guide on how to fill out the claim form.Project on Predatory Student Lending · www.predatorystudentlending.orgMarch 2019
