By the mid-20oos, the college was having financial issues and failing to_
meet “financial responsibility standards” of the United States Department of Education, a measure of economic viability. In
2009, Daniel Webster College received a score of just 0.5 out of 3 on that scale, with 1.5 considered passing.[5] Faced with
the prospect of losing educational accreditation and federal fiinding, both of which would have forced the school to close,[6]
[71 it was acquired by ITT Educational Services, Inc., the parent company of the ITT Technical Institutesm in June 2009,51 [9]
and subsequently became a for-profit institution.”°] A May 2009 article in the Nashua Telegraph cited unnamed college
officials stating “there were uncertainties about whether there would be the resources necessary to keep the flight program
going.”[6] In March 2010 interim President Nadine Dowling announced ITT Educational Services‘ decision to phase out the
program and to stop accepting new flight students,“ ‘1 while allowing- students currently enrolled in the program to complete
their education. As of May 2013, there were no longer any flight students enrolleim] In February 2014, the US. Consumer
Financial Protection Bureau filed a lawsuit against ITT Educational Services, alleging predatory student lending practices
and misleading students about future job prospects.“3]
Following the sudden suspension of the flight prograni, student enrollment was reduced significantly. Former enrollment
numbers of 1,200 dropped to the current rate of approximately 600 undergraduate students.[”] Future plans for the school
include expanding the engineering program, developing other campuses to include the Daniel Webster College brand, and
offering online degrees to remote students.“5]
Campus
The main campus is located on 54 acres (22 ha) next to Nashua Airport. There are three academic buildings and five
residence halls on the main campus in Nashua.”6]
Organization
The school is a subsidiary of ITT Educational Services, Inc. It was purchased in 2009 at $29.3 milliondfilm
Academics
The school offers associate’s degrees, bachelor’s degrees, and master’s degrees, as well as several adult degree completion
programs and an online education program. The school is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and
Collegesm]
Since 2011 the school is no longer accredited by the Aviation Accreditation Board International (AABI).[‘8] The school’s Air
Traffic Management program is approved under the FAA’s Air Traffic Collegiate Training Initiative (CTI) program to train
air traffic controllers. It was recently announced by the FAA that the CTI program will be canceled. The B.S. in Aviation
Flight Operations was one of three undergraduate aviation degree programs offered, but new students are no longer accepted
into this program.” The B.S. in Aviation Management and the-B.S. in Aviation/Air Traffic Management are still offered.
However, as of July 2011, these two programs are no longer accredited by AABI, disqualifying graduates from many
positions which require a degree from an AABI-accredited program.[“‘]
