(a) - (d)(No change.) (e)Subsequent application for accreditation. No more than six months prior to the expiration of its current accreditation, a school may apply for accreditation for another five year period. [If a school was accredited prior to the effective date of this section, the accreditation of the school expires January 1, 2001, and the school may apply for accreditation at any time.] (1)To renew its accreditation, at least 55 percent of the school's graduates must have passed a commission licensing exam the first time the exam is taken by the graduates. (2)The school a graduate is affiliated with for purposes of this subsection is the school where the graduate took his or her last core course, unless the course was taken more than two years before the date the graduate submitted an education evaluation to the commission. If the graduate's last core course was taken more than two years before that date, the commission will not count the course or the graduate in calculating the school's exam pass rate. (3)For purposes of calculating the exam passage rate of a commission-accredited school, each type of licensing examination that a graduate takes for the first time will have a school affiliation, unless the last core course taken for the purpose of meeting the education requirements for the type of license was taken at a school that is not accredited by the commission or the course was taken more than two years before the date the graduate submitted an education evaluation to the commission. (f) - (o)(No change.)
