Welcome to the NACUA Compliance Matrix

Your All-in-One Higher Education Compliance Reference

Navigating the web of higher education law shouldn’t be a full-time search. The NACUA Compliance Matrix organizes key federal statutes and regulations, provides brief summaries, and details reporting windows and associated requirements in a single, intuitive interface.

Built from publicly-available sources and the collective expertise of leading member institutions, and updated regularly by NACUA, it’s the essential reference for proactive higher education legal, compliance, and risk management professionals.

The Matrix is intended to be a helpful informational clearinghouse for laws, rules, and regulations that may impact colleges and universities; it is not intended, nor can it be relied upon, as legal advice. While we make every effort to provide updated information, there may be delays or omissions on the Matrix. Please consult your campus counsel for advice and specific questions.
