In 1996, a United States federal judge ordered that "the eligibility of Universidad Federico Henriquez y Carvajal to participate in the United States student financial assistance programs authorized under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 be terminated" due to failure to develop a satisfactory academic progress policy and inappropriate need analysis for 11 recipients of Title IV student financial aid.
