Distance Learning & SARA Compliance

Mid-America College of Funeral Service is committed to providing quality education through distance learning programs. As a participating institution in the National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (NC-SARA), we adhere to established standards for offering postsecondary distance education across state lines.

State Authorization

Our participation in NC-SARA allows us to offer distance education programs to students in member states. For a list of NC-SARA member states, please visit the NC-SARA Directory.

Please note that California is not a member of NC-SARA. Therefore, students residing in California should consult with the California Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education regarding enrollment in our distance education programs.

Grievance Policy

Students enrolled in distance education courses are encouraged to resolve any grievances by following the College’s internal procedures:

  1. Institutional Complaint Process: Begin by reviewing and following the steps outlined in our Grievance Policy. This includes attempting informal resolution and, if necessary, proceeding to formal grievance procedures.
  2. Catalog Reference: Detailed information about our grievance procedures can also be found in the College Catalog and Student Handbook.

SARA Student Complaint Process

If a student’s complaint is not resolved satisfactorily through the institutional process and the student resides in a SARA member state (excluding Georgia), they may escalate the complaint to the appropriate SARA State Portal Entity.

Please ensure that all institutional grievance procedures have been exhausted before filing a complaint with the SARA State Portal Entity.

Licensure Disclosures

Students are advised to consult the State Licensure Information page to determine whether our distance education programs meet the licensure requirements in their respective states.
