SARA Map

The State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (SARA) is an initiative that gives higher education institutions a wider freedom to offer online courses to students outside of the home states of said institutions.  This is accomplished via creating a process by which institutions can maintain compliance standards and state approvals more efficiently, with state regulatory agencies from across the country entering into a single reciprocity agreement.
