<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form&nbsp;10-Q and Article&nbsp;10 of Regulation&nbsp;S-X. Accordingly, the financial
statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals,
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the year ending December&nbsp;31, 2007. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December&nbsp;31, 2006, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements
as of that date. For additional information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006,
included in Part&nbsp;IV, Item&nbsp;15 of our Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
on March&nbsp;1, 2007. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
used in this Quarterly Report on Form&nbsp;10-Q, the terms "we," "us," "our," and "CEC" refer to Career Education Corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. The
terms "school" and "university" refer to an individual, branded, proprietary educational institution, owned by us and
including its campus locations. The term "campus" refers to an individual main or branch campus operated by one of our schools or universities. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein include the accounts of CEC and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have
been eliminated. The results of operations of all acquired businesses have been consolidated for all periods subsequent to the date of acquisition. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
June of 2007, we announced our decision to teach-out our two Brooks College campuses, which previously were held for sale. Accordingly, the results of operations of our
two Brooks College campuses previously reported in discontinued operations as of December&nbsp;31, 2006, and March&nbsp;31, 2007, are now included in our results from continuing operations in our
unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income for all 2007 and 2006 periods presented. Additionally, our audited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December&nbsp;31, 2006, has been
restated to reflect our treatment of Brooks College as a continuing operation. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BUSINESS ACQUISITION  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On January&nbsp;25, 2007, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of Istituto Marangoni for approximately $37.2&nbsp;million. The purchase price
was funded with cash generated from operating activities. Istituto Marangoni is a world-renowned private, for-profit, post-secondary fashion and design school with locations in
Milan, Italy; London, England; and Paris, France. We acquired Istituto Marangoni primarily because of its potential for market leadership, the economic attractiveness of the educational markets that
it serves, and its potential for strong returns on invested capital. The acquisition of Istituto Marangoni also provides us with a platform for additional expansion in Europe and represents our entry
into the Italian educational market. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
purchase price of approximately $39.6&nbsp;million, including acquisition costs of approximately $2.4&nbsp;million, was allocated to the estimated fair values of acquired
tangible and identifiable intangible assets of approximately $27.0&nbsp;million and assumed liabilities of approximately $16.2&nbsp;million as of January&nbsp;25, 2007. Intangible assets
acquired include, among others, trade names with a total estimated fair value of approximately $9.8&nbsp;million and student contracts with an estimated fair value of approximately
$1.5&nbsp;million. Based on our preliminary purchase price allocation, we have recorded goodwill of approximately $28.8&nbsp;million. We do not expect any portion of this goodwill balance to be
deductible for income tax reporting purposes. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subsequent
adjustments may be made to the purchase price and the purchase price allocation. However, we do not believe that any such adjustments will be significant. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Cash and Cash Equivalents and Investments  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash equivalents include short-term investments with a term to maturity of less than 90&nbsp;days. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
postsecondary education industry includes approximately 6,500 institutions that participate in federally-sponsored financial aid programs authorized by Title IV of the Higher
Education Act of 1965, as amended ("HEA,"), which we refer to as "Title IV Programs." The U.S. Department of Education ("ED") requires that Title IV Program funds collected in advance of student
billings be kept in a separate cash account until the students are billed for the portion of their program related to those Title IV Program funds collected. The ED further requires that Title IV
Program funds be disbursed to students within three business days of receipt. As of September&nbsp;30, 2007, and December&nbsp;31, 2006, the amount of restricted cash balances held in separate
cash accounts was not significant. Restrictions on cash balances have not affected our ability to fund daily operations. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Investments,
which primarily consist of municipal auction rate securities, are classified as "available-for-sale" in accordance with the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.&nbsp;115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, and are recorded at fair value. Any unrealized gains or temporary
unrealized losses, net of income tax effects, are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on our consolidated balance sheet. Realized gains and losses are computed on the
basis of specific identification and are included in miscellaneous other income (expense) in our consolidated income statement. As of September&nbsp;30, 2007, the stated terms to maturity of certain
of our available-for-sale investments are greater than one year. However, all of our available-for-sale investments are classified as current assets on
our consolidated balance sheets as the investments are readily marketable, available for use in our current operations, and reasonably expected to be sold within one year. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of September&nbsp;30, 2007, we have outstanding under our $200.0&nbsp;million U.S. Credit Agreement revolving loans totaling $11.0&nbsp;million and
letters of credit totaling $14.4&nbsp;million. Credit availability under our U.S. Credit Agreement as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, is $174.6&nbsp;million. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
of September&nbsp;30, 2007, we have no revolving loans outstanding under our $10.0&nbsp;million (USD) Canadian Credit Agreement. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
October&nbsp;31, 2007, we repaid in full and subsequently terminated our existing credit agreement and entered into a new unsecured credit agreement ("Credit Agreement") with a
syndicate of financial institutions, represented by, among others, an administrative agent. The Credit Agreement (i)&nbsp;reduces our costs of borrowing due to more favorable interest rates and
standby fee prices; (ii)&nbsp;decreases our revolving credit facility from $200&nbsp;million to $185&nbsp;million while increasing the "accordion" (the amount for which we may request an
increase in the size of our revolving credit facility) from $75&nbsp;million to $100&nbsp;million; (iii)&nbsp;decreases the letter of credit sublimit from $100&nbsp;million to
$50&nbsp;million; (iv)&nbsp;increases the foreign currency sublimit from $50&nbsp;million to $100&nbsp;million; (v)&nbsp;increases the debt-to-EBITDA leverage
covenant from 1.75:1 to 3.00:1; and (vi)&nbsp;eliminates our net worth covenant requirement. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition, we also terminated our $10.0&nbsp;million (USD) Canadian credit agreement and entered into a new unsecured credit agreement ("Canadian Credit Agreement") as part of the
senior unsecured credit agreement. The Canadian Credit Agreement decreases our revolving credit facility from $10.0&nbsp;million (USD), to $2.5&nbsp;million (USD). </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;RECOURSE LOAN AGREEMENTS  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have entered into agreements with Sallie Mae and Stillwater National Bank ("Stillwater") to provide private recourse loans to qualifying students. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sallie Mae.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our original recourse loan agreement with Sallie Mae was effective from July&nbsp;1, 2002, to
February&nbsp;28, 2006. We entered into a new risk sharing agreement with Sallie Mae effective March&nbsp;1, 2006, which has an expiration date of June&nbsp;30, 2009. Under both our original and
subsequent recourse loan agreements with Sallie Mae, we are required to deposit 20% of all recourse loans funded into a Sallie Mae reserve account. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under
our original recourse loan agreement, loans funded were intended for students whose credit scores were less than the credit score required under Sallie Mae's
non-recourse loan program for our students. A student was generally eligible for a Sallie Mae recourse loan under the original agreement if (1)&nbsp;the student demonstrated a specified
minimum credit score, (2)&nbsp;any bankruptcy proceeding involving the student had been discharged for at least 18&nbsp;months, and (3)&nbsp;the student was not in default or delinquent with
respect to any prior student loan. Under the terms of the original agreement, we are obligated to purchase, with funds that have been deposited into the reserve account as discussed above, recourse
loans funded under the original agreement (a)&nbsp;that have been delinquent for 150&nbsp;days or (b)&nbsp;upon the bankruptcy, death, or total and permanent disability of the borrower. The
amount of our repurchase obligation under the original agreement may not exceed 20% of loans funded under the original agreement, which also represents the amount that is withheld by Sallie Mae and
deposited into the reserve account. Any balance remaining in the reserve account after all recourse loans have been either repaid in full or repurchased by us will be paid to us. Our new recourse loan
agreement with Sallie Mae has substantially similar terms, with the exception that students and, if applicable, their qualified co-borrowers, must demonstrate a slightly higher specified
minimum credit score than the credit score required under the original agreement to be eligible for a recourse loan. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
record amounts withheld by Sallie Mae in the reserve account as a deposit in long-term assets on our consolidated balance sheet. Amounts on deposit may ultimately be
utilized to purchase loans in default, in which case recoverability of such amounts would be in question. Therefore, we establish a </FONT></P>

reserve against amounts on deposit through the use of a deposit contra-account. We believe that costs associated with our Sallie Mae recourse loan programs are directly attributable to the
educational activity of our schools and the support of our students. Therefore, such costs are classified as educational services and facilities expense in our consolidated statement of income. Costs
are recognized on a straight-line basis over the course of the instructional term for which the underlying loan was granted as the related revenues are earned. Upon purchasing Sallie Mae
loans in default, we transfer an amount equal to the total balance of the loans purchased from the deposit account to a long-term recourse loan receivable account and transfer an
offsetting amount from the deposit contra-account to a long-term recourse loan receivable contra-account, such that the net book value of the purchased loans is generally zero. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
October of 2006, we negotiated an amendment to our risk sharing agreement that reduced the minimum credit score required for our students to qualify for non-recourse loans
under Sallie Mae's non-recourse loan program. The amendment also reduced loan fees and interest rates charged to our students for both non-recourse and recourse loans funded
by Sallie Mae. Under the amendment, we are obligated to pay Sallie Mae a discount fee equal to 25% of all recourse loans funded under the agreement after March&nbsp;1, 2007. Pursuant to the
amendment, we are no longer required to deposit a portion of loans funded under the agreement into a Sallie Mae reserve account. In addition, we are not required to repurchase any loans funded under
the agreement. We believe that costs associated with our amended risk sharing agreement with Sallie Mae are directly attributable to the educational activity of our schools and support of our
students. Therefore, such costs are classified as educational services and facilities expense in our consolidated statements of income. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stillwater.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The private student loans subject to the Stillwater purchase agreement were made by Stillwater to students at our
schools if (1)&nbsp;the student demonstrates a specified minimum credit score, which is less than the minimum credit score required pursuant to our risk sharing agreement with Sallie Mae,
(2)&nbsp;any bankruptcy proceeding involving the student has been discharged for at least 18&nbsp;months, and (3)&nbsp;the student is not in default or delinquent with respect to any prior
student loan. The loans are serviced by Sallie Mae. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, Stillwater retained 50% of the loan amounts disbursed and deposited this amount into a reserve account.
Under the terms of the purchase agreement, Stillwater has an option, but not an obligation, to sell to us 100% of these private student loans on a monthly basis. We were required to purchase all
private student loans offered for sale by Stillwater for a price equal to the current principal balance plus accrued interest. To date, we have purchased all private student loans offered for sale by
Stillwater. Upon purchase of private student loans from Stillwater, we receive all funds that were placed into the reserve account with respect to the specific loans purchased. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Amounts
held in reserve with Stillwater will be used to finance 50% of the principal balance of any loans that we are required to purchase pursuant to the agreement. We record such
amounts as a deposit in long-term assets on our consolidated balance sheet. Based on our collection experience, we establish a 100% reserve against Stillwater funds on deposit. Due to the
high level of uncollectible amounts expected under the Stillwater agreement, the associated costs are classified as a reduction of the related tuition revenue in our consolidated statement of income.
Costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the course of the instructional term for which the underlying loan was granted as the related revenues are earned and classified as a
reduction of related revenue. Upon purchasing Stillwater loans in default, we record the total balance of the loans as a long-term recourse loan receivable and transfer the reserve for
recourse loans withheld by the lender, totaling approximately 50% of the related principal balance, from the deposit contra-account to the long-term loan receivable contra-account, such
that the net book value of the purchased loans is approximately 50% of the related principal balance. Based on our collection experience, we believe that the 50% reserve is reasonable to provide for
Stillwater loans that have been purchased or that may be purchased and that </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Historically, on the first day of January of each year, our goodwill balances were reviewed for impairment through the application of a
fair-value-based test. The results of the test as of January&nbsp;1, 2007, indicated no goodwill impairment for all reporting units, which we define as our school operating divisions.
Our estimate of reporting unit fair value exceeded the carrying value of the reporting unit. Our estimate of fair value for each of our reporting units was based primarily on projected future
operating results and cash flows and other assumptions. Although we believe our projections and resulting estimates of fair value are reasonable, historically our projections have not always been
achieved. </FONT></P>

2002, we have performed our annual goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment tests on the first day of January of each year. However, during 2007, we changed the date of our
annual impairment tests to the first day of October of each year. We changed the measurement date of our annual impairment tests primarily due to the change in our annual budget preparation process
that we implemented during 2007. Previously, the budget process was not completed and budgeted financial statements for a given year were not available until the fourth </FONT></P>

of the third quarter of the previous year. This change enables and facilitates the performance of impairment testing at an earlier date. The change in dates with respect to our annual goodwill and
other indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment testing will be made on a prospective basis and this change did not delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge. Accordingly, we believe that
this accounting change is preferable in our circumstances. This change had no impact on our consolidated financial statements for any period presented. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Vander Vennet, et al. v. American InterContinental University,&nbsp;Inc., et al.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As previously disclosed, on
August&nbsp;24, 2005, former admissions advisors of American InterContinental University ("AIU") Online filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois
alleging that we, AIU Online, and the President of our University division violated the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA"), the Illinois Minimum Wage Law, and the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection
Act by
failing to pay the plaintiffs for all of the overtime hours they allegedly worked. Plaintiffs seek unspecified lost wages, liquidated damages, attorneys' fees, and injunctive relief. The plaintiffs
are also seeking certification as a class under the FLSA. On December&nbsp;22, 2005, and April&nbsp;7, 2006, the court granted plaintiffs' motions to send FLSA Notice, and plaintiffs' counsel has
distributed such notice to certain current and former admissions advisors. On April&nbsp;7, 2006, the court granted the plaintiffs' motion to expand the class to include temporary admissions
advisors. The deadline for potential plaintiffs to opt-in to this lawsuit was June&nbsp;23, 2006. Less than 10&nbsp;percent of the persons to whom notice of the suit was sent,
including current and former admissions advisors, have joined the litigation. Defendants deny all of the material allegations in the complaint and are vigorously defending the claims and opposing
class certification. The parties are currently engaged in discovery. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Due

February&nbsp;5, 2004, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois by and on behalf of certain purchasers of our common stock, against us, John M. Larson, and Patrick

Circuit on April&nbsp;24, 2007. The parties have reached an agreement to settle the plaintiffs' claims on appeal. This settlement is subject to the case being remanded to the District Court by the
Court of Appeals and approval by the District Court after notice to potential class members. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of this matter. An
unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, cash flows, and financial position. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>Special Committee Investigation  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As previously disclosed, in June&nbsp;2004, our Board of Directors formed a Special Committee to conduct an independent investigation of allegations of
securities laws violations against us. These allegations were asserted in the </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>In re Career Education Corporation Securities Litigation</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> matter described
above (the "Class Action"). In July&nbsp;2004, the Special Committee retained the law firm of McDermott, Will&nbsp;&amp; Emery LLP, which in turn retained the forensic accounting firm Navigant
Consulting,&nbsp;Inc., to assist in the investigation. Among other things, the investigation reviewed the allegations related to our accounting practices and reported statistics relating to starts,
student population, and placement. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
previously disclosed, the Special Committee did not find support for the claims that CEC or its senior management engaged in the securities laws violations alleged in the Class
Action. The Special Committee did find wrongful conduct by individual employees of CEC but specifically found that the wrongful activity was not directed or orchestrated by our senior management. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Special Committee conducted a further investigation of assertions related to the claims of securities laws violations made for the first time, and not previously examined, in the
second and third amended complaints filed in the Class Action on April&nbsp;1, 2005, and May&nbsp;1, 2006, respectively. The Special Committee completed its investigation of these new assertions
and concluded that it did not find support for them. In so doing, the Special Committee reaffirmed its prior conclusion that it did not find support for the claims that CEC or its senior management
engaged in the securities laws violations alleged in the Class Action. </FONT></P>

October of 2007, the Board of Directors, upon recommendation of the Special Committee, dissolved the Special Committee. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As previously disclosed, on March&nbsp;12, 2004, we filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania against the former
owners of Western School of Health and Business Careers ("Western"). In the lawsuit, we allege that the former owners of Western made material misrepresentations of fact and breached certain
representations and warranties regarding the accreditation and approval of several programs of study offered by Western and seek full indemnification for all resulting losses, costs, and damages,
including attorneys' fees. On July&nbsp;12, 2004, we filed a similar complaint in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, and </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>subsequently
voluntarily dismissed the federal lawsuit. Subsequently, we amended our complaint to assert a claim for breach of contract against Western's former accounting firm. Discovery is in
progress. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
misrepresentations we allege in this matter came to light during a routine change of ownership review undertaken by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges of
Technology ("ACCSCT") subsequent to our acquisition of Western. On March&nbsp;4, 2004, ACCSCT notified us of discrepancies in accreditation and approval documents related to several academic
programs. Western suspended marketing, new enrollments, and disbursement of funds issued under Title IV Programs for all affected academic programs, and promptly applied for approval of all such
programs. The diploma programs were approved in June&nbsp;2004, and Western then resumed marketing, enrolling new students, and disbursement of Title IV Program aid to students in those programs. In
July&nbsp;2004, ACCSCT approved the degree programs effective upon Western's satisfaction of certain stipulations. Western subsequently satisfied all stipulations and resumed marketing, enrollment
of new students, and disbursing of Title IV Program funds to students in those programs. We are working in close cooperation with the ED and the U.S. Department of Justice to resolve any remaining
issues in a manner that will best serve the interest of Western's students. As a result of this matter, we expect that we will be required to reimburse the ED for a portion of Title IV Program funds
improperly disbursed in relation to the affected programs, and we have recorded in our consolidated financial statements a reserve for the amount of the refund that we expect to pay to the ED. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
pending lawsuit seeks to recover any such funds from the former owners of Western and its former accounting firm. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot predict

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Laronda Sanders, et al. v. Ultrasound Technical Services,&nbsp;Inc., et al.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On March&nbsp;15, 2006, a complaint was filed
against us and Ultrasound Technical Services,&nbsp;Inc. ("UTS"), one of our subsidiaries, in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, Greenbelt Division. The plaintiffs are 21
current and former students of the Landover, Maryland, campus of Sanford-Brown Institute ("SBI"), one of our schools. The plaintiffs purport to bring their claims on behalf of themselves and a
putative class of similarly situated former students. The case was later consolidated with a separate action brought in the same court by another former student. Plaintiffs' second amended complaint,
filed on March&nbsp;12, 2007, alleges that the defendants made fraudulent misrepresentations and violated the Maryland consumer fraud act by misrepresenting or failing to disclose, among other
things, details regarding instructors' experience or preparedness, availability of clinical externship assignments, and estimates for the dates upon which the plaintiffs would receive their
certificates and be able to enter the work force. The complaint also alleges that defendants breached plaintiffs' enrollment contracts by failing to provide the promised instruction, training,
externships, and placement services. Plaintiffs seek unspecified actual damages, punitive damages, and costs. Discovery is ongoing. </FONT></P>

September&nbsp;28, 2005, a complaint was filed against Allentown Business School,&nbsp;Ltd. ("Allentown"), one of our subsidiaries, in the Court of Common Pleas of Lehigh County, Pennsylvania. The
complaint purports to be brought on behalf of all former students of Allentown, now known as Lehigh Valley College, who received allegedly "high interest private loans," and alleges that Allentown
violated Pennsylvania's Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law and engaged in intentional misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation, and negligence in connection with the enrollment
and student loan information and application processes. The complaint seeks compensatory and punitive damages in an unspecified amount. On December&nbsp;12, 2005, the plaintiffs filed an amended
complaint asserting the same claims as set forth in the initial complaint. On December&nbsp;14, 2005, Allentown moved to compel arbitration. The motion was granted by Order dated November&nbsp;13, </FONT></P>

CEC-owned schools. The details of each lawsuit are described in more detail in previous disclosures. Generally, they challenge alleged admissions practices at the schools relating
primarily to the disclosure of prior graduates' employment statistics and, in certain instances, the transferability of credits earned at the schools to other non-CEC postsecondary
schools. CEC has reached an agreement to settle the lawsuits, which is only effective upon approval by the court. The monetary component of the proposed settlement involves our payment of
approximately $12.4&nbsp;million to resolve all three cases, including plaintiffs' attorney's fees and certain audit expenses to be incurred with the proposed settlement. The proposed settlement
also involves auditing and injunctive relief components. </FONT></P>

complaint was filed in the California Superior Court in San Francisco on behalf of 37 current and former students of the California Culinary Academy ("CCA"). Plaintiffs plead their complaint as a
putative class action and allege four putative causes of action: fraud; constructive fraud; violation of the California Unfair Competition Law; and violation of the California Consumer Legal Remedies
Act. Plaintiffs contend that CCA made a variety of misrepresentations to them, primarily oral, during the admissions process. The alleged misrepresentations relate generally to the school's
reputation, the value of the education, the competitiveness of the admissions process, the students' employment prospects upon graduation from CCA and CCA's ability to arrange beneficial student
loans. CCA has not yet responded to the complaint. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition to the legal proceedings and other matters described above, we are also subject to a variety of other claims, suits, and investigations that arise
from time to time in the ordinary conduct of our business, including, but not limited to, claims involving students or graduates and routine employment matters. While we currently believe that such
claims, individually or in aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on our financial position, cash flows, or results of operations, the litigation and other claims noted above are subject
to inherent uncertainties, and management's view of these matters may change in the future. Were an unfavorable final outcome to occur in any one or more of these matters, there exists the possibility
of a material adverse impact on our business, reputation, financial position, cash flows, and the results of operations for the period in which the effect becomes probable and reasonably estimable. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As part of Title IV administration, the ED periodically conducts program reviews at selected schools that receive Title IV funds. ED program review reports or
final determination letters, which generally cover a school's main campus and any branch campuses, are currently pending for American InterContinental University; Briarcliffe College; Brooks
Institute; California Culinary Academy; Gibbs College&#151;Boston, Massachusetts; Gibbs College&#151;Livingston, New Jersey; Katharine Gibbs School&#151;New York; International
Academy of Design and Technology&#151;Chicago; Sanford-Brown Institute&#151;Atlanta; The Cooking and Hospitality Institute of Chicago; and Western School of Health and Business Careers.
The ED has completed its review of Gibbs College in Vienna, Virginia and Lehigh Valley College and has issued final determination letters. We are committed to resolving all issues identified in

from the Midwest Regional Office of the SEC that it was conducting an inquiry concerning us and requested that we voluntarily provide certain information. On June&nbsp;22, 2004, the SEC staff
notified us that it was conducting a formal investigation. On April&nbsp;5, 2006, we disclosed that we were advised by the staff of the Midwest Regional Office of the SEC that the staff intends to
recommend to the SEC that it terminate its investigation and that no enforcement action be taken against us. Recommendations by the SEC staff do not constitute final action by the SEC, as the SEC

that the Justice Department was reviewing allegations that certain of our schools may have submitted false claims or statements to the ED. The letter requested that we provide documents relating to
various subject areas. The Justice Department indicated that this review was informational in nature. We voluntarily responded to the Justice Department's requests for information and cooperated fully
with it. In August&nbsp;2007, we were informed by the Justice Department that it was closing its review with no action taken against us or any of our schools. We were further informed by the Justice
Department that in connection with its review, it had declined to intervene in five separate qui tam lawsuits that had been filed under seal against us and certain of our schools. We have not been
served with any of the complaints in the qui tam lawsuits, and we do not know whether the individual plaintiffs in those cases will voluntarily dismiss their complaints in light of the Justice
Department's decision not to intervene, or will continue to pursue their claims. </FONT></P>

New York State Education Department (the "NYSED") conducted a site visit to Gibbs-NY. The purpose of the visit was to examine Gibbs-NY's compliance with the regulations of the NYSED. On
June&nbsp;28, 2006, the NYSED issued a draft report relating to its site visit. The draft report included a number of findings and recommendations and indicated that Gibbs-NY may be out
of compliance with NYSED regulations in several areas. Gibbs-NY was given until August&nbsp;29, 2006, to comment on the draft report, point out factual errors, provide new information,
and respond to the recommendations set forth therein. Gibbs-NY submitted a response to the draft report within the prescribed time period. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On

absent a finding of substantial compliance with registration standards resulting from the follow-up review, it would terminate the registration of all degree programs at
Gibbs-NY. While the review remains pending, the NYSED has limited enrollments commencing with the April&nbsp;2007 academic quarter to not more than 50% of entering
"first-time" students enrolled in the comparable academic quarter of the preceding year. The NYSED has also required Gibbs-NY to show that not less than 65% of
April&nbsp;2007 entering first-time, full-time students remain as students into the following term, exhibiting satisfactory academic performance and progress.
Gibbs-NY submitted a response addressing the NYSED's remaining concerns on March&nbsp;23, 2007, and hosted a follow-up visit in July&nbsp;2007. The final written report of
the NYSED's visiting team is pending. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
a May&nbsp;31, 2006, subpoena, the Pennsylvania AG requested that Lehigh provide additional documents and information and appear to answer certain inquiries. Lehigh produced
documents responsive to the Pennsylvania AG's additional requests and made a former senior administrator available to answer the Pennsylvania AG's inquiries. In October&nbsp;2006, the Pennsylvania
AG alleged that the school had violated the Pennsylvania Consumer Protection Law. The Pennsylvania AG offered Lehigh and CEC the opportunity to resolve this matter through entering into an assurance
of voluntary compliance and payment of a fine and costs. During the period October&nbsp;2006 through February&nbsp;2007, Lehigh and CEC engaged in discussions with the Pennsylvania AG regarding
the terms of an assurance of voluntary compliance upon which the matter may be resolved. In May&nbsp;2007, Lehigh received a letter from the Pennsylvania AG setting forth additional requests for
information and documents. These latest requests focus on relationships and business dealings between Lehigh and CEC and companies that offer student loans, and, in particular, the use of "preferred
lender lists." Lehigh and CEC submitted a response to this request in June&nbsp;2007. The discussions among Lehigh, CEC, and the Pennsylvania AG regarding the terms of an assurance of voluntary
compliance are continuing. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Overview of Share-Based Compensation Plans  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under our 1998 Employee Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended, (the "Employee Plan") and our 1998 Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan (the
"Directors Plan"), non-employee members of our Board of Directors, officers, and other employees may receive grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, shares of
non-vested stock, stock appreciation rights, and other awards. We are authorized to grant up to approximately 28.5&nbsp;million shares of common stock under the plans. As of
September&nbsp;30, 2007, we have reserved approximately 5.3&nbsp;million shares of common stock for the exercise of stock options outstanding, approximately 0.8&nbsp;million shares for awards of
non-vested stock, and
approximately 3.6&nbsp;million additional shares of common stock for future share-based awards under the plans. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stock Options.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The exercise price of stock options granted under the plans is equal to the fair market value of our common
stock on the date of grant. Employee stock options become exercisable ratably over a four-year service period beginning on the date of grant and expire ten years after the date of grant,
unless an earlier expiration date is set at the time of the grant. Non-employee directors' stock options expire ten years after the date of grant and generally become exercisable as
follows: one-third on the grant date, one-third on the first anniversary of the grant date, and one-third on the second anniversary of the grant date. Both employee
stock options and non-employee director stock options are subject to possible earlier vesting and termination in certain circumstances. If a plan participant terminates his or her
employment for any reason other than by death or disability during the vesting period, he or she forfeits the right to unvested stock option awards. Since the inception of the plans, grants of stock
options have only been subject to the service conditions discussed previously. No stock option grants have included performance or market conditions that affect stock option vesting or other pertinent
factors. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Non-vested Stock.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shares of non-vested stock become vested three years after the date of grant. If a
plan participant terminates his or her employment for any reason other than by death or disability during the vesting period, he or she forfeits the right to all shares of non-vested
stock. The vesting of shares of non-vested stock is subject to possible acceleration in certain circumstances. Certain of the shares of non-vested stock that we have granted to
plan participants are subject to performance conditions that may affect the number of shares of non-vested stock that will ultimately vest at the end of the requisite service period. These
awards are referred to as "performance-vesting non-vested stock." </FONT></P>

option activity during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, under all of our stock option plans was as follows: </FONT></P>

provision included in our share-based compensation plans. As defined by the plans, a change in control is deemed to have occurred if, among other things, any corporation, person, or other entity
(other than CEC, a majority-owned subsidiary of CEC or any of CEC's subsidiaries, or an employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by CEC), including a "group" as defined in Section&nbsp;13(d)(3)

of September&nbsp;30, 2007, we are not aware of any person or entity, including a group who beneficially owns 20% or more of the combined voting power of our outstanding common
stock, and we do not believe it is probable that the change in control provisions will be triggered. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
any person or entity, including a group, beneficially owned 20% or more of the combined voting power of our then outstanding common stock as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, triggering
the change in control provisions discussed above, we would have recognized additional share-based compensation expense of approximately $28.2&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. The
estimated additional share-based compensation expense represents, for each outstanding share-based award, the greater of (a)&nbsp;the
unrecognized grant date compensation expense for the share-based award as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, or (b)&nbsp;the fair value of the cash redemption value of the share-based award as of
September&nbsp;30, 2007, less share-based compensation expense previously recorded under SFAS&nbsp;123R or disclosed as pro forma compensation expense under SFAS&nbsp;123, based on a change in
control price of $35.62 per share, the highest reported share price of a share of our common stock in a transaction reported on the NASDAQ Global Select Market during the 60-day period
prior to and including September&nbsp;30, 2007. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally,
if the change in control provisions had been triggered as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, or if we determined that the occurrence of a change in control event was probable,
we would have recognized a liability of $16.5&nbsp;million as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, representing the estimated fair value of the obligation that would be due to participants who are eligible
to surrender all or part of a stock option award to us in exchange for cash. Our estimation of this cash liability assumes that participants would elect to redeem for cash all stock options
outstanding as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, with an exercise price less than the change in control price. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Balance Sheet Presentation of Share-based Awards Subject to Redemption  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As discussed above, a participant in the plans has the right, or may be granted the right, upon the occurrence of a change in control event, to surrender all or
part of his or her stock option awards to us in exchange for cash. As required by SFAS No.&nbsp;123 (revised), </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Share-Based Payment</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>

period. Total grant-date cash redemption value for each outstanding stock option award represents the intrinsic value of the award as of the grant date, assuming that a change in
control event occurred on the grant date. Share-based awards subject to redemption as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, recorded as a reduction of retained earnings with no affect on net income,
represents the portion of the total grant-date cash redemption value for all stock option awards outstanding as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, earned by plan participants as a result of
services rendered through such date. The adoption of SFAS&nbsp;123R resulted in the cumulative effect recorded in this manner as of January&nbsp;1, 2006, of $11.2&nbsp;million. The balance
increased during 2006 by $2.3&nbsp;million, resulting in a balance of $13.5&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2006, and increased by $0.4&nbsp;million during the first nine months of 2007,
resulting in a balance of $13.9&nbsp;million as of September&nbsp;30, 2007. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Share-based Awards Assumptions  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In accordance with SFAS&nbsp;123R, the fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing
model. Consistent with our approach under the disclosure only provisions of SFAS&nbsp;123, we will continue to recognize the value of share-based compensation as expense during the vesting periods
of the underlying share-based awards using the straight-line method. SFAS&nbsp;123R requires companies to estimate forfeitures of share-based awards at the time of grant and revise such
estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from original projections. Consistent with our approach under the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS&nbsp;123, we will
continue to estimate forfeitures at the time of grant. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
fair value of each stock option award granted during the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006, was estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Our determination of the fair value of each stock option is affected by our stock price on the date of grant, as well as assumptions regarding a number of
highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, our expected stock price volatility over the expected life of the awards and actual and projected stock option
exercise behavior. The weighted average fair value per share of stock option awards granted during the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006, and assumptions used to value
stock options are as follows: </FONT></P>

affiliate earnings and excludes interest income, interest expense, miscellaneous income and expense, and any unallocated corporate expenses. Adjustments to reconcile segment results to consolidated
results are included under the caption "Corporate and other," which primarily includes unallocated corporate activity and eliminations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The

notes to our consolidated financial statements in Part&nbsp;IV, Item 15 of our Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006. Transactions between
segments, which are not significant, are consummated on a basis intended to reflect the market value of the underlying products or services. A majority of corporate expenses have been charged to the
segments as part of a general allocation. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
results of operations of our schools' on-ground campuses fluctuate on a quarterly basis, primarily as a result of changes in the level of student enrollment. Our schools'
on-ground campuses typically experience a seasonal increase in student population in the fall, traditionally when the largest number of new high-school graduates begin
postsecondary education. Furthermore, although our schools encourage year-round attendance at all campuses, certain programs at certain schools include summer breaks. As a result of these

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In November of 2006, our Board of Directors approved a plan (the "Sale Plan") to sell 13 of our schools and campuses, including the nine campuses that comprise

and invest in the schools and campuses within the Sale Group until the schools and campuses are sold. Continuing investment activities will include the strengthening of educational programming and

continuing involvement with the entities after disposition. Historically, the Gibbs division campuses have been included in the Gibbs segment, and the campuses of McIntosh College, Brooks
College, and Lehigh Valley College have been included in the Colleges segment. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
June of 2007, we decided to retain the two campuses of Brooks College and teach-out these campuses. We decided to retain and teach out Brooks College because we were not
able to identify a suitable buyer that we believed would support the best interests of the
campus' students and faculty. The two campuses of Brooks College are no longer held for sale and the results of operations of Brooks College are no longer reflected as discontinued operations in our
consolidated statements of income for all periods presented. Additionally, the assets and liabilities of our two Brooks College campuses are no longer included in current assets held for sale and
current liabilities held for sale on our consolidated balance sheet. All current and prior period financial statements and the related notes included herein have been restated to include the results
of operations and financial position of Brooks College in the Colleges segment of our continuing operations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
continue negotiations with potential buyers of our schools currently held for sale. In November of 2007, we concluded that we may not be able to find a suitable buyer that provides an
acceptable financial arrangement and provide for the best potential outcome for our students. As a result, we are currently examining other alternatives for these schools and campuses currently held
for sale which may include, among other things, continued operation of certain schools and campuses, conversion to alternative formats or brands, teach-out, and sale of individual schools. These
alternatives may also include reclassification of the schools and campuses currently held for sale from discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations, to continuing operations
within our consolidated statements of operations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
of September&nbsp;30, 2007, we believed that the schools and campuses remaining within the Sale Group met the criteria necessary for such entities to qualify as assets held for sale
under the specific provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;144, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> ("SFAS&nbsp;144").
Accordingly, the results of operations of those schools and campuses are reflected as discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under
SFAS&nbsp;144, the net assets of assets held for sale are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at estimated fair value, less costs to sell. Accordingly, during the fourth
quarter of 2006, we recorded a charge of approximately $9.8&nbsp;million, net of income tax benefit of $5.2&nbsp;million, to reduce the carrying value of the net assets of our schools and campuses
held for sale to estimated fair value, less costs to sell. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
the event that the schools currently held for sale are not sold and we decide to teach-out our schools held for sale, we will likely incur a significant loss in our
results of continuing operations which include acceleration of depreciation expense throughout the teach-out period and acceleration of rent expense for remaining future lease obligations
at the conclusion of the teach-out period. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Results of Discontinued Operations  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Combined summary results of operations for the Sale Group, excluding the Brooks College campuses, which are reflected as discontinued operations in our unaudited
condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006, were as follows: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Many of our students require assistance in financing their education. For this reason, all of our schools offer financial aid programs and financing options. A
majority of students who attend our U.S. accredited schools are eligible to participate in some form of government-sponsored financial aid program. Our schools also participate in a number of state
financial aid programs and offer private funding options. Our schools that participate in federal financial aid programs are subject to extensive regulatory requirements imposed by federal and state
government agencies, including the ED, and other standards imposed by educational accrediting bodies. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Nature of Federal Support for Postsecondary Education in the United States  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The U.S. government provides a substantial portion of its support for postsecondary education in the form of Title IV Program grants, loans and
work-study programs to students who can use those funds to finance certain expenses at any institution that has been certified as eligible by the ED. These federal programs are authorized
by the HEA. Generally, financial aid administered under Title IV Programs is awarded on the basis of financial need, which is generally defined under the HEA as the difference between the cost of
attending an institution and the amount a student can reasonably be expected to contribute to that cost. Among other things, recipients of Title IV Program funds must maintain a satisfactory grade
point average and progress in a timely manner toward completion of their program of study. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Students
at our schools may receive grants, loans, and work-study opportunities to fund their education under the following Title IV Programs, although not all of our schools
participate in each of these programs: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Federal Family Education Loan ("FFEL") Program.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Loans under the FFEL program are made by banks and other
lending institutions directly to our students or their parents. If a student or parent defaults on a FFEL program loan, repayment is guaranteed by a federally recognized guaranty agency, which is then
reimbursed by the ED. Our schools and students use a wide variety of lenders and guaranty agencies and have not experienced difficulties in identifying lenders and guaranty agencies willing to make
and guarantee FFEL program loans. The two primary types of loans obtained by students at our schools under the FFEL program are Stafford loans and PLUS loans for parents. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stafford
loans, which may either be subsidized or unsubsidized, are loans made directly to our students by financial institutions that participate in the FFEL program. Students who have
a demonstrated financial need are eligible to receive a subsidized Stafford loan, with the ED paying the interest on this loan while the student is enrolled at least half-time in school
and during the first six months after leaving school. Students who do not demonstrate financial need are eligible to receive an unsubsidized Stafford loan. The student is responsible for paying the
interest on an unsubsidized Stafford loan while in school and after leaving school, although actual interest payments generally may be deferred by the student until after he or she has left school.
Students who are eligible for a subsidized Stafford loan may also receive an unsubsidized Stafford loan. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A
student is not required to meet any specific credit scoring criteria to receive a Stafford loan, but any student with a prior Stafford loan default or who has been convicted under
federal or state law of selling or possessing drugs while receiving federal aid may not be eligible for a Stafford loan. The ED has established maximum annual borrowing limits with respect to Stafford
loans, and these annual limits are generally less than the tuition costs at our U.S. schools. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A
PLUS loan is a loan made directly by financial institutions to the parents of our dependent students. Parents who have an acceptable credit history can borrow under a PLUS loan to pay
the educational expenses of a child who is a dependent student enrolled at least half-time at our U.S. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To participate in the Title IV Programs, an institution must be authorized to offer its programs of instruction by the relevant education agencies of the state in
which it is located, accredited by an accrediting agency recognized by the ED, and certified as eligible by the ED. The ED will certify an institution to participate in Title IV Programs only after
the institution has demonstrated compliance with the HEA and the ED's extensive regulations regarding institutional eligibility. An institution must also demonstrate its compliance with these

to extensive regulation in each of the states in which our schools operate campuses and in other states in which our schools recruit students. Currently, each of our U.S. campuses is
authorized by its applicable state licensing agency or agencies. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
level of regulatory oversight varies substantially from state to state. In certain states in which we operate, our campuses are subject to licensure by an agency that regulates
proprietary institutions and also by a separate higher education agency. State laws establish standards for, among other things, student instruction, qualifications of faculty, location and nature of
facilities, and financial policies. State laws and regulations may limit our campuses' ability to operate or to award degrees or diplomas or offer new degree programs. If any one of our campuses were
to lose state authorization, it would be unable to offer educational programs, and students attending the campus would not be eligible to participate in Title IV Programs. Such severe penalties would
require us to close a campus if it were to lose state authorization. See Note&nbsp;7 "Commitments and Contingencies&#151;State Regulatory Actions" of these notes to our consolidated financial
statements for a further discussion of selected state regulatory matters currently affecting us and our schools. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accreditation for U.S. Institutions.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accrediting agencies also are responsible for overseeing educational institutions, and,
under the HEA, continued approval by an accrediting agency recognized by the ED is necessary for an institution to maintain eligibility to participate in Title IV Programs. Accreditation is a
non-governmental process through which an institution submits to a qualitative review by an organization of peer institutions. Accrediting agencies primarily examine the academic quality
of the institution's instructional programs, and a grant of accreditation is generally viewed as confirmation that an institution's programs meet generally accepted academic standards. Accrediting
agencies also review the administrative and financial operations of the institutions they accredit to ensure that each institution has sufficient resources to perform its educational mission.
Accrediting agencies must adopt specific standards in connection with their review of postsecondary educational institutions to be recognized by the ED. All of our U.S. campuses except Kitchen Academy
in Sacramento, California are accredited by one or more accrediting agencies recognized by the ED. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accrediting
agency oversight may occur at several levels. An accrediting agency may place an institution on "Reporting" status to monitor one or more specified areas of performance. An
institution placed on Reporting status is required to report periodically to its accrediting agency on its performance in the specified areas and to continue to submit such periodic reports for a
specified period, which is generally one year, after which the institution is re-evaluated. An accrediting agency may place an institution on "Warning" status if it determines that the
institution may be in danger of failing to comply with the accreditation requirement, or it may place an institution on "Probation" status if it determines that an institution appears to be deficient
with regard to such requirement. In either instance, the institution is given a prescribed period to demonstrate that it has rectified the deficiency, which period may subsume two or more years. When
accrediting agencies determine that a serious deficiency may exist, it may direct an institution to "Show Cause" as to why its accreditation should not be terminated. An institution under Show Cause
is required to satisfy its accrediting agency within a prescribed period, generally less than one year, that it has satisfactorily resolved the deficiency. See Note&nbsp;7 "Commitments and
Contingencies&#151;Accrediting Body Actions" of these notes to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of selected accreditation matters currently affecting us and our
schools. </FONT></P>

further extensions of the HEA. In February&nbsp;2006, as part of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, Congress made certain changes in the HEA that had been reflected in the HEA reauthorization bills.

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Whether
or not Congress addresses reauthorization, there will be further legislation changes. In the absence of reauthorization, Congress has several student aid bills on the legislature
floor to consider. However, if the HEA is reauthorized, it will override the current legislation. Therefore, at this time, we cannot determine the scope, content, or effect of pending changes. Any
action by Congress that significantly reduces Title IV Program funding or the ability of our schools or students to participate in Title IV Programs could have a material adverse effect on our student
population, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Legislative action may also require us to modify our practices for our schools to comply fully with applicable requirements. The
adoption of any such modifications could result in additional administrative costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
College Cost Reduction and Access Act was signed by President Bush on September&nbsp;27, 2007 and is effective as of October&nbsp;1, 2007 (unless otherwise noted). The ACT
authorizes Federal Pell Grants through 2017, reduces Stafford loan interest rates through the year 2011, moves the burden of some fees to lender and guarantee agencies, expands Stafford loan deferment
options, and provides changes to needs analysis and independent status for the years of 2009 through 2010. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Student Loan Default Rates.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An institution may lose eligibility to participate in some or all Title IV Programs if the rates
at which former students default on the repayment of their federally-guaranteed or federally-funded student loans exceed specified percentages. An institution's cohort default rate under the FFEL
program is calculated on an annual basis as the rate at which student borrowers scheduled to begin repayment of their loans in one federal fiscal year default on those loans by the end of the next
federal fiscal year. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An
institution whose cohort default rates equal or exceed 25% for three consecutive years will no longer be eligible to participate in the FFEL or Pell programs for the remainder of the
federal fiscal year in which the ED determines that such institution has lost its eligibility and for the two subsequent federal fiscal years. An institution whose cohort default rate under the FFEL
program for any federal fiscal year exceeds 40% will no longer be eligible to participate in the FFEL program for the remainder of the federal fiscal year in which the ED determines that the
institution has lost its eligibility and for the two subsequent federal fiscal years. An institution whose cohort default rate under the FFEL program equals or exceeds 25% for any one of the three
most recent federal fiscal years, or whose
cohort default rate under the Perkins loan program exceeds 15% for any year, may be placed on provisional certification status by the ED for up to four years. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;All
of our schools have implemented student loan default management programs aimed at reducing the likelihood of our students' failure to repay their loans in a timely manner. Those
programs emphasize the importance of students' compliance with loan repayment requirements and provide for extensive loan counseling, methods to increase student persistence and completion rates and
graduate employment rates, and proactive borrower contacts after students cease enrollment. If any of our schools were to lose eligibility to participate in Title IV Programs due to student loan
default rates being higher than the ED's tolerable thresholds and we could not arrange for adequate alternative student financing sources, we would most likely have to close those schools, which could
have a material adverse effect on our student population, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Financial Responsibility Standards.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To participate in Title IV Programs, an institution must satisfy specific measures of
financial responsibility as prescribed by the ED. The ED evaluates institutions for compliance with these standards each year, based on the annual audited financial statements of an institution or its
parent corporation, and following a change of control of an institution. With respect to our schools, it has been the ED's practice to measure financial responsibility on the basis of the financial
statements of both our individual schools and CEC on a consolidated basis. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To
be considered financially responsible, an institution must, among other things, (i)&nbsp;have sufficient cash reserves to make required refunds, (ii)&nbsp;be current on its debt
payments, (iii)&nbsp;meet all of its financial obligations, and (iv)&nbsp;achieve a "composite score" of at least 1.50 based on the institution's annual financial statements. The ED calculates an
institution's composite score, which may range from
- -1.00 to 3.00, based on a combination of financial measures designed to establish the adequacy of an institution's capital resources, its financial viability, its ability to support
current operations, and its ability to generate a profit. An institution that does not meet the ED's minimum composite score of 1.0 may demonstrate its financial responsibility in one of several ways,
including posting a letter of credit in favor of the ED in an amount equal to at least 50% of Title IV Program funds received by the institution during its prior fiscal year or posting a letter of
credit in an amount equal to at least 10% of Title IV Program funds received by the institution during its prior fiscal year and agreeing to certain additional requirements for the receipt of Title IV
Program funds, including, in certain circumstances, receipt of Title IV Program funds under an agreement other than the ED's standard advance funding arrangement. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Currently,
none of our schools are required to post a letter of credit or accept other conditions on its participation in Title IV Programs due to failure to satisfy the ED's financial
responsibility standards. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Return and Refunds of Title IV Program Funds.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An institution participating in Title IV Programs must correctly calculate the
amount of unearned Title IV Program funds that were disbursed to students who withdrew from educational programs before completing the programs, and must return those funds in a timely manner.
Institutions are required to return such funds within 45&nbsp;days of the date the institution determines that the student has withdrawn. An institution that is found to be in
non-compliance with ED refund requirements for either of the last two completed fiscal years must post a letter of credit in favor of the ED in an amount equal to 25% of the total Title IV
Program refunds paid by the institution during its prior fiscal year. Due to non-compliance with ED refund requirements at 11 of our schools, we have posted a total of $2.7&nbsp;million
in letters of credit in favor of the ED as of September&nbsp;30, 2007. </FONT></P>

another entity or significant acquisition or disposition of an institution's equity. It is possible that some of these events may occur without our control. Our failure to obtain, or a delay in
obtaining, a required approval of any change in control from the ED, applicable state agencies, or accrediting agencies could impair our ability or the ability of the effected schools to participate

student population, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;When
we acquire an institution that is eligible to participate in Title IV Programs, that institution undergoes a change of ownership resulting in a change of control as defined by the
ED. Each of our acquired schools in the U.S. has undergone a certification review under our ownership and has been certified to participate in Title IV Programs on a provisional basis. Currently, four
of our schools participate in Title IV Programs under provisional certification due to the ED's change of ownership criteria. The potential adverse effects of a change of control under ED regulations
may influence future decisions by us and our stockholders regarding the sale, purchase, transfer, issuance, or redemption of our common stock. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Opening New Schools, Start-up Branch Campuses, and Adding Educational Programs.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The HEA generally requires that
proprietary institutions be fully operational for two years before applying to participate in Title IV Programs. However, an institution that is certified to participate in Title IV Programs may
establish a start-up branch campus and participate in Title IV Programs at the start-up branch campus without reference to the two-year requirement if the
start-up branch campus has received all of the necessary state and accrediting agency approvals, has been reported to the ED, and meets certain other criteria as defined by the ED.
Nevertheless, under certain circumstances, such a start-up branch campus may also be required to obtain approval from the ED to be able to participate in Title IV Programs. Similarly, an
institution that is eligible to participate in Title IV Programs may generally add a new educational program and disburse Title IV Program funds to students enrolled in that new program without ED
approval if the new program leads to an associate level or more advanced degree and the institution already offers programs at that level, or if the new program prepares students for gainful
employment in the same occupation or a related occupation as an educational program that has previously been designated as an eligible program at the institution and meets minimum length requirements.
Otherwise, the institution must obtain the ED's approval before it may disburse Title IV Program funds to students enrolled in the new program. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition to ED regulation, certain of the state and accrediting agencies with jurisdiction over our schools have requirements that may affect our ability to open a new school, open a
start-up branch campus of one of our existing schools, or begin offering a new educational program at one of our schools. If we establish a new school, add a new branch
start-up campus, or expand program offerings at any of our schools without obtaining the required approvals, we would likely be liable for repayment of Title IV Program funds provided to
students at that school or branch campus or enrolled in that educational program, and we could also be subject to sanctions. Also, if we are unable to obtain the approvals from the ED, applicable
state regulatory agencies, and accrediting agencies for any new schools, branch campuses, or program offerings where such approvals are required, or to obtain such approvals in a timely manner, our
ability to grow our business would be impaired and our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. </FONT></P>

institution would no longer be eligible to participate in Title IV Programs if, on a cash accounting basis, it derived more than 90% of its revenue, as defined pursuant to applicable ED regulations,
for any fiscal year from Title IV Programs. An institution that violates this 90-10 Rule becomes ineligible to participate in Title IV Programs as of the first day of the fiscal year
following the fiscal year for which it is in violation of the rule and is unable to apply to regain its eligibility until the next fiscal year. If an institution violated the 90-10 Rule
and became ineligible to participate in Title IV Programs but continued to disburse Title IV Program funds, the ED would require the institution to repay all Title IV Program funds received by the
institution after the effective date of the loss of eligibility. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Administrative Capability.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ED regulations specify extensive criteria that an institution must satisfy to establish that it
has the requisite administrative capability to participate in Title IV Programs. These criteria relate to, among other things, institutional staffing, operational standards, timely submission of
accurate reports to the ED, and various other procedural matters. If an institution fails to satisfy any of the ED's criteria for administrative capability, the ED may require the repayment of Title
IV Program funds disbursed by the institution, require the institution to receive Title IV Program funds under an agreement other than the ED's standard advance funding agreement while being
provisionally certified, or commence a proceeding to impose a fine or limit, suspend, or terminate the participation of the institution in Title IV Programs. </FONT></P>

student recruitment or admission activity or in making decisions regarding the awarding
of Title IV Program funds. The ED's laws and regulations regarding this rule do not establish clear criteria for compliance in all circumstances. If the ED determined that an institution's

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Eligibility and Certification Procedures.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under the provisions of the HEA, an institution must apply to the ED for continued
certification to participate in Title IV Programs at least every six years or when it undergoes a change of control, as discussed above. The ED may place an institution on provisional certification

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We and our schools are subject to and have pending audits, compliance reviews, inquiries, investigations, claims of non-compliance, and lawsuits by
the ED and federal and state regulatory agencies, accrediting agencies, present and former students and employees, stockholders, and other third parties that may allege violations of statutes,
regulations, accreditation standards, or other regulatory requirements applicable to us or our schools. The HEA also requires that an institution's administration of Title IV Program funds be audited
annually by an independent accounting firm and that the resulting audit report be submitted to the ED for review. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
the results of any such audits, reviews, investigations, claims, or actions are unfavorable to us, we may be required to pay monetary damages or be subject to fines, operational
limitations, loss of federal funding, injunctions, additional oversight and reporting, or other civil or criminal penalties. In addition, if the ED or another regulatory agency determined that one of
our schools improperly disbursed Title IV Program funds or violated a provision of the HEA or the ED's regulations, that school could be
required to repay such funds, and could be assessed an administrative fine. We have several such matters pending against us or one or more of our schools. See Note&nbsp;7 "Commitments and
Contingencies&#151;Federal, State, and Accrediting Body Regulatory Actions" of these notes to our consolidated financial statements for a detailed discussion of certain of these matters. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>FIN&nbsp;48  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In June&nbsp;2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Interpretation No.&nbsp;48, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> ("FIN&nbsp;48"), which is an interpretation of SFAS No.&nbsp;109, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Accounting for Income Taxes</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>.
FIN&nbsp;48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements in accordance with SFAS&nbsp;109 and prescribes a recognition threshold and
measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. FIN&nbsp;48 also provides guidance on
derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN&nbsp;48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;31, 2006. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
adopted the provisions of FIN&nbsp;48 on January&nbsp;1, 2007, the beginning of our 2007 fiscal year. As of January&nbsp;1, 2007, our consolidated balance sheet included an
accrual for uncertain income tax obligations of $24.9&nbsp;million. We did not record any cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings in connection with our adoption of FIN&nbsp;48. The
accrual for uncertain income taxes decreased $4.4&nbsp;million from $24.9&nbsp;million as of January&nbsp;1, 2007, to $20.5&nbsp;million as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, due to the settlement
of various state income tax audits and the expiration of statute of limitations for certain states. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In September&nbsp;2006, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;157, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Fair Value Measurements</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> ("SFAS&nbsp;157").
SFAS&nbsp;157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. SFAS&nbsp;157 applies under other accounting pronouncements
that require or permit fair value measurement and accordingly, does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS&nbsp;157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning
after November&nbsp;15, 2007. We are currently in the process of assessing the impact of SFAS&nbsp;157, but do not believe that our adoption of the standard will have a material impact on our
consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P>

Liabilities</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>("SFAS&nbsp;159"). SFAS&nbsp;159 provides guidance with respect to presentation and disclosure requirements for reporting financial assets and liabilities at

No.&nbsp;157, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Fair Value Measurements</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>("SFAS&nbsp;157"), and in SFAS No.&nbsp;107, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Disclosures about Fair Value of

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Provision for income taxes decreased $7.9&nbsp;million, or 48.5%, from $16.2&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006, to $8.3&nbsp;million during the
third quarter of 2007. The decrease is primarily attributable to a $15.0&nbsp;million decrease in income before provision for income taxes during the third quarter of 2007 and
a change in the effective tax rate during the third quarter of 2007. The annual effective tax rate was revised to 34.5% during the third quarter of 2007. The decrease in the effective tax rate was
attributable to a change of our estimate of the proportional share of income from tax exempt interest. </FONT></P>

of which $7.3&nbsp;million was deductible for income tax purposes. The decrease is also attributable to a decrease in income before provision for income taxes of $31.0 million, from
$128.9&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006, to $97.9&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, and a change in our estimate of the proportional

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
the third quarter of 2007, we recorded an adjustment that increased our state income tax expense by approximately $2.8&nbsp;million. The $2.8&nbsp;million increase represented
a difference between our estimated state income tax liability for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006, compared to the actual 2006 state income tax liability determined during the third quarter of
2007. Additionally, we reduced our accrual for uncertain income tax obligations by approximately $2.2&nbsp;million in the third quarter of 2007 due to the settlement of certain state income tax
audits. We also reduced our accrual for uncertain income tax obligations by an additional $2.8&nbsp;million in the third quarter of 2007 due to the expiration of the statute of limitations for
certain state income tax audit periods. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>16.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;SUBSEQUENT EVENTS  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On December&nbsp;19, 2002 we entered into a five year credit agreement with a syndicate of financial institutions. The credit agreement allowed us to borrow up
to $200&nbsp;million under a revolving credit facility and obtain up to $100&nbsp;million in standby letters of credit. On October&nbsp;31, 2007, we repaid in full and subsequently terminated
our existing credit agreement and entered into a new five year unsecured credit agreement ("Credit Agreement") with a syndicate of financial institutions, represented by, among others, an
administrative agent. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Credit Agreement (i)&nbsp;reduces our costs of borrowing due to more favorable interest rates and standby fee prices; (ii)&nbsp;decreases our revolving credit facility from
$200&nbsp;million to $185&nbsp;million while increasing the "accordion" (the amount for which we may request an increase in the size of our revolving credit facility) from $75&nbsp;million to
$100&nbsp;million; (iii)&nbsp;decreases the letter of credit sublimit from $100&nbsp;million to $50&nbsp;million; (iv)&nbsp;increases the foreign currency sublimit from $50&nbsp;million to
$100&nbsp;million;
(v)&nbsp;increases the debt-to-EBITDA leverage covenant from 1.75:1 to 3.00:1; and (v)&nbsp;eliminates our net worth covenant requirement. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Credit Agreement requires that borrowings bear interest at fluctuating interest rates determined by the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, plus the applicable margin within the
relevant range of margins provided in our credit agreement. Under the new credit agreement, the applicable margin is based on our funded debt-to-EBITDA leverage ratio. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, including our failure to pay any principal, interest or other amount when due, our violation of certain of our affirmative
covenants or any of our negative covenants, a breach of our representations and warranties, or a change of control. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, payment of our indebtedness may be
accelerated and the lending commitments under the credit agreement may be terminated. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition, we also terminated our $10.0&nbsp;million (USD) Canadian credit agreement and entered into a new unsecured credit agreement ("Canadian Credit Agreement") as part of the
senior unsecured credit agreement. The Canadian Credit Agreement decreases our revolving credit facility from $10.0&nbsp;million (USD), to $2.5&nbsp;million (USD). </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
August of 2007, we announced the retirement of Patrick&nbsp;K. Pesch from the positions of Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, and Treasurer. In addition,
Mr.&nbsp;Pesch announced his resignation from his position as Director. Mr.&nbsp;Pesch has served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer since 1999 and Director since 1995. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Succeeding
Mr.&nbsp;Pesch as our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer is Michael&nbsp;J. Graham. Mr.&nbsp;Graham brings to us a broad and diverse background in
operations and senior management experience with a variety of public and private companies, including, among other thing, expertise in international business transactions, mergers and acquisitions,
and proven success in effectively managing and establishing efficiencies in large organizations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
August of 2007, we also announced the appointment of Thomas&nbsp;G. Budlong, as our Senior Vice President Organization Effectiveness and Administration. Mr.&nbsp;Budlong
brings to Career Education Corporation more than two decades of domestic and international human resource experience. In this newly created role, Mr.&nbsp;Budlong will be responsible for human
resources and talent management, procurement, office services, and a variety of other significant organization initiatives. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
October of 2007, we announced the appointment of Leonard&nbsp;A. Mariani as our Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing and Admissions Officer. Mr.&nbsp;Mariani brings to us
senior operational and general management experience in a variety of industries and companies, including, among other things, solid functional expertise in business strategy, marketing and sales
operations, and product and business development. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total
revenue from continuing operations during the third quarter of 2007 was $404.4&nbsp;million, a decrease of $24.2&nbsp;million, or 5.6%, from total revenue during the third
quarter of 2006 of $428.6&nbsp;million. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to a decrease in average revenue per student. The decrease in average revenue per student was attributable to a
University segment population mix change that included an increase in CTU students, which have a lower revenue per student than AIU, and an increase in students in our University segment's
fully-online associate degree programs, which offer lower tuition rates than those of our University segment's fully-online bachelor's degree and master's
degree programs. The increase in online associate degree-seeking students was the result of a pricing reduction in our AIU Online associate programs and strong student population growth at CTU
Stonecliffe Online. The increase in the population mix of CTU is attributable to an increase in average CTU Online population and a decline in average AIU student population during the third quarter
of 2007, relative to average student population during the third quarter of 2006. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Income
from continuing operations decreased to $23.9&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007, from $38.4&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006. Operating profit margin
percentage was 5.9% during the third quarter of 2007, compared to 9.0% during the third quarter of 2006. Income from continuing operations, net of tax, during the third quarter of 2007 was
$19.8&nbsp;million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared to income from continuing operations, net of tax, during the third quarter of 2006 of $27.0&nbsp;million, or $0.28 per diluted share, a
decrease of $7.2&nbsp;million, or 26.6%. The following factors adversely affected our profit margins for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, relative to our profit margins during the

While our results continue to be negatively affected by a number of near-term factors, we have taken steps during the first nine months of 2007 to address these issues and better position
the company to achieve its long-term potential. While we are in the process of finalizing a plan that will allow us to sustain positive operating trends, address existing issues, and
better position the company for profitable, long-term growth, to date we have made progress with respect to a number of key initiatives designed to better focus our business, increase
efficiency and profitability, and ensure that the company's priorities align with those of our students. These initiatives include the following: </FONT></P>

flexible educational delivery combined with a large number of brick-and-mortar campuses further distinguishes us in the marketplace, enabling us to provide students with more

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;SACS Probation Status of AIU.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As previously disclosed, on December&nbsp;6, 2005, the Commission on Colleges of the Southern
Associations of Colleges and Schools ("SACS") placed AIU on "Probation" status for one year pending AIU's satisfactory remediation of certain accreditation deficiencies with regard to SACS Principles
of Accreditation. This action followed a July&nbsp;2005 SACS special committee visit of AIU that resulted in a report identifying specific recommendations. In October&nbsp;2006, a SACS special
committee completed site visits of selected AIU campuses. At SACS' December&nbsp;11, 2006, meeting, SACS extended AIU's Probation status through December&nbsp;2007. Under SACS's rules, an
institution may remain on Probation status only for two consecutive years, after which SACS must either lift the Probation or remove the institution from membership. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This
action has had, and will continue to have, a disruptive effect on operations of AIU and our business generally, including, the diversion of significant time and attention of AIU's
senior management, which adversely affected our results of operations for 2006 and the results of operations for the first nine months of 2007. We expect this action will continue to have an adverse
impact on our results of operations for the remainder of 2007. AIU remains accredited during this probationary period and is committed to resolving all issues identified by SACS. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
October of 2007, a Special Committee of SACS completed four scheduled visits to AIU. At the conclusion of the visits, the Special Committee informed AIU that its final report to SACS
would contain no recommendations for further corrective action. The Commission on Colleges is not required to accept the conclusions of the Special Committee, and this does not in any way constitute a
final determination on the probationary status of AIU. Actions taken by the Commission on Colleges are expected to be announced at its Annual Business Session in December of 2007. An unfavorable
outcome in the matter could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows, and financial position. </FONT></P>

our schools and campuses (the "Sale Plan"). The Sale Plan includes the sale of our nine Gibbs campuses, which collectively comprised our entire Gibbs reportable segment,
McIntosh College, and Lehigh Valley College. McIntosh College and Lehigh Valley College were previously components of our Colleges reportable segment. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
continue negotiations with potential buyers of our schools currently held for sale. In November of 2007, we concluded that we may not be able to find a suitable buyer that provides an
acceptable financial arrangement and provide for the best potential outcome for our students. As a result, we are currently examining other alternatives for these schools and campuses currently held
for sale which may include, among other things, continued operation of certain schools and campuses, conversion to alternative formats or brands, teach-out, and sale of individual schools. These
alternatives may also include reclassification of the schools and campuses currently held for sale from discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations, to continuing operations
within our consolidated statements of operations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
the event that the schools currently held for sale are not sold and we decide to teach-out our schools held for sale, we will likely incur a significant loss in our
results of continuing operations which include acceleration of depreciation expense throughout the teach-out period and acceleration of rent expense for remaining future lease obligations
at the conclusion of the teach-out period. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Decline in University Segment Profitability.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The operating margin percentage of our University segment, excluding share of
affiliate earnings, declined to 10.0% during the third quarter of 2007, from 16.9% during the third quarter of 2006, due primarily to a decline in average revenue per student. The overall decline in
University segment operating profit margin percentage during the third quarter of 2007 was attributable to the combined decline in operating profit margin percentage of our University segment's
fully-online academic platforms, which include AIU Online, CTU Online, and CTU Stonecliffe Online, which is an academic division of CTU. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A
significant portion of the total student population, revenue, and operating profits of our University segment are attributable to AIU Online. However, AIU Online student population,
revenue, and operating profit declined during the third quarter of 2007. The decreases in AIU Online's student population, revenue, and operating profits are primarily attributable to the maturation

offerings and the adverse impact of negative publicity related to AIU's Probation status with its accrediting body, SACS. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
decline in AIU Online student population, revenue, and operating profits is also attributable to greater competition and greater consumer price sensitivity within the online,
postsecondary education market. In response to such emerging market forces, AIU continually evaluates its online programs to ensure that the programs are market relevant and competitively priced. AIU
has historically marketed AIU Online's programs as a premium academic product due to the quality of educational content and the technology used to deliver the program. However, market research
conducted by AIU during 2006 revealed the significant price sensitivity among prospective students for AIU Online's associate degree programs. Based on this information, AIU Online reduced the pricing
of its associate degree programs beginning in July of 2006. AIU did not identify similar price sensitivities among prospective students for AIU Online's bachelor's and master's degree programs and,
thus, it has not reduced the pricing of its bachelor's and master's degree programs. We believe there remains a high level of interest in AIU Online's accelerated programs, and AIU expects to further
expand AIU Online's program offerings to include part-time offerings for bachelor's and master's degrees. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Also,
as previously discussed, we expect that the combined operating margin percentage achieved by our University segment and our University segment's online platforms will continue to
decline from prior period levels primarily as a result of the continued disproportionate operating profit growth of CTU Online and Stonecliffe College Online (an academic division of CTU). CTU Online
has historically operated at a lower operating margin percentage than that of AIU Online. Thus, the disproportionate growth of CTU Online operations is effectively lowering the operating margin
percentage of the University segment as a whole. Additionally, as a result of the disproportionate growth of CTU Online and the introduction of Stonecliffe College Online, both of which offer longer-
termed programs than does AIU Online, we expect average revenue per online student to continue to decrease in the future. However, we believe that by providing our students with a flexible array of
online program options, we will enhance our University segment schools' ability to expand their presence in the online, postsecondary education market. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
results of operations and operating margin percentage of our University segment during the third quarter of 2007 were positively impacted by a decrease in bad debt expense as a
percentage of revenue. The decrease in University segment bad debt expense as a percentage of revenue was primarily attributable to an increased focus on the collection of amounts due from students
who have left school, Associate degree price reductions that have reduced the difference between program costs and available financial aid, and improvements in student retention. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Impact of Changes in Credit Standards.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe that student population, revenue, and operating profits at certain of our
schools were negatively impacted during the third quarter of 2007 as a result of (1)&nbsp;the implementation by Sallie Mae in March&nbsp;2006 of stricter credit standards at all of our schools for
certain prospective students seeking to fund a portion of their education through Sallie Mae's non-recourse loan program (2)&nbsp;our decision to stop offering loans made under the
Stillwater Bank Purchase Agreement to new students, and (3)&nbsp;the continued application of strict credit standards by all of our schools. We believe these stricter credit standards have reduced
bad debt expense from previous levels but also have limited the number of prospective students who qualify for certain private financing options. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
August and September of 2006, we evaluated the impact of stricter credit standards and implemented certain changes in the credit standards for students at all of our schools. We
also began offering our students extended payment plans to finance the portion of their tuition not covered by Title IV Program funds, private loans, and other available sources of financial aid that
most of our students qualify for. These extended payment plans allow students to make an affordable monthly payment while they attend school and pay their remaining balance after they graduate or
leave school. </FONT></P>

our extended payment plans, students may be granted up to 10&nbsp;years to repay their extended payment plan balances, which is generally the same amount of time that students are granted to

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;International Expansion.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe that the international market for our services represents a significant growth
opportunity. We believe that international students are increasingly utilizing online U.S. educational programs as a means of obtaining a U.S. education without incurring the related significant
travel and living costs and stringent visa requirements associated with studying abroad. Additionally, we continue to pursue opportunities to expand our on-ground presence internationally.
On January&nbsp;25, 2007, we acquired Istituto Marangoni. Istituto Marangoni is a world-renowned private, for-profit, post-secondary fashion and design school with locations
in Milan, Italy; London, England; and Paris, France. We acquired Istituto Marangoni primarily because of its potential for market leadership, the economic attractiveness of the educational markets
that it serves, and its potential for strong returns on invested capital. The acquisition of Istituto Marangoni also provides us with a platform for additional expansion in Europe and represents our
entry into the Italian educational market. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hybrid Learning.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have made advances in the development of our unique hybrid learning model, which capitalizes on the
strength of our highly regarded learning platform and extensive library of interactive and multimedia content and now enables students at a growing number of on-ground campuses to pursue
their academic programs on-ground or online. AIU, which now offers 45 hybrid programs, and CTU, which now offers 37 hybrid programs, and IADT which offers 15 hybrid programs, were our
first on-ground schools to offer hybrid educational programs as a complement to those schools' existing online campuses. In addition, we have mapped existing interactive multimedia content
to more than 1,700&nbsp;courses offered at our on-ground campuses, giving instructors new online resources to enhance their courses. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Increased Competition.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have experienced increased competition for our universities' fully-online platforms and in certain

recruit new students. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total revenue decreased $24.2&nbsp;million, or 5.6%, from $428.6&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006 to $404.4&nbsp;million during the third
quarter of 2007. The overall decrease in revenue is primarily attributable to a decrease in revenue generated by our University and Colleges segments, offset, in part, by increases in revenue
generated by our Health Education, Academy, and International segments. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;University Segment Revenue.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;University segment revenue decreased $30.5&nbsp;million, or 15.8%, from $193.4&nbsp;million
during the third quarter of 2006 to $162.9&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. The University segment revenue decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in average revenue per
student. The decrease in average revenue per student was attributable to a population change that included an increase in the number of students at CTU, which has a lower revenue per student than AIU,
and an increase in students in our University segment's fully-online associate degree programs, which offer lower tuition rates than those of our University segment's fully-online bachelor's degree
and master's degree programs. The increase in online associate degree-seeking students was a result of a pricing reduction in our AIU Online associate programs and strong student population growth at
CTU Stonecliffe Online. The increase in the population of CTU is attributable to an increase in average CTU Online population and a decline in average AIU student population during the third quarter
of 2007, relative to average student population during the third quarter of 2006. We believe that the declines in the AIU student population and student starts are primarily attributable to the
continuing effects of the ongoing SACS Probation status, which was announced on December&nbsp;6, 2005, and is negatively impacting those schools' ability to recruit new students. The adverse effects
of the SACS Probation status have resulted in a decrease in student population and revenue at each of our AIU universities and have significantly impacted the operating results of AIU Online. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Culinary Arts Segment Revenue.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Culinary Arts segment revenue increased $1.6&nbsp;million, or 1.6%, from
$96.9&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006, to $98.5&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. The
Culinary Arts segment revenue increase is primarily attributable to an increase in student starts during the third quarter of 2007, relative to student starts during the third quarter of 2006. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Colleges Segment Revenue.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Colleges segment revenue decreased $6.6&nbsp;million, or 13.2%, from $50.5&nbsp;million during
the third quarter of 2006 to $43.9&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. The Colleges segment revenue decrease is primarily attributable to declines in average student population and
student starts during the third quarter of 2007, relative to average student population and student starts during the third quarter of 2006, and represents a continuation of weak operating performance
experienced in recent periods by many of our Colleges segment schools. We believe that the continuing weak operating performance experienced by many of our Colleges segment schools is primarily
attributable to the continued negative impact of certain legal and regulatory matters and the related negative publicity, negative press coverage regarding certain of our Colleges segment schools, and
ongoing general competitive pressures for student leads and enrollments experienced by certain of our Colleges segment schools. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Health Education Segment Revenue.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Health Education segment revenue increased $4.8&nbsp;million, or 11.1%, from
$42.8&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006 to $47.6&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. The Health Education segment revenue increase is primarily attributable to
(1)&nbsp;tuition price increases implemented during 2006, (2)&nbsp;an increase in average student population and student starts during the third quarter of 2007, relative to average student
population and student starts during the third quarter of 2006, and (3)&nbsp;a shift in student enrollment mix that resulted in higher average revenue per student. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Academy Segment Revenue.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Academy segment revenue increased $3.1&nbsp;million, or 8.2%, from $37.7&nbsp;million during the
third quarter of 2006 to $40.8&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. The Academy segment revenue increase is primarily attributable to an increase in student starts during the third quarter
of 2007, relative to student starts during the third quarter of 2006. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;International Segment Revenue.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;International segment revenue increased $3.9&nbsp;million, or 54.5%, from
$7.0&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006 to $10.9&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. The International segment revenue increase is primarily attributable to third quarter
incremental revenues of $2.4&nbsp;million generated by Istituto Marangoni, which we acquired in January of 2007. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally,
revenue generated by our INSEEC schools during the third quarter of 2007 increased by approximately $1.5&nbsp;million as a result of an increase in average student
population during the third quarter of 2007, relative to average student population during the third quarter of 2006. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>Educational Services and Facilities Expense  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Educational services and facilities expense increased $9.7&nbsp;million, or 6.9%, from $139.8&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006, to
$149.5&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. The $9.7&nbsp;million increase is primarily attributable to a $4.7&nbsp;million increase in academics expense and a $3.3&nbsp;million
increase in occupancy expense. The increase in academics expense is primarily attributable to incremental costs incurred by new campus locations, including our start-up campuses and our
Istituto Marangoni schools. The increase in occupancy expense is primarily attributable to incremental costs associated with expansions of certain existing campuses, start-up activity
costs in our Culinary Arts and Academy segments, and our acquisition of Istituto Marangoni in January of 2007. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>General and Administrative Expense  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;General and administrative expense decreased $18.6&nbsp;million, or 8.1%, from $230.2&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006 to $211.6&nbsp;million
during the third quarter of 2007. This decrease is primarily attributable to a $6.5&nbsp;million decrease in admissions expense associated with admissions headcount reductions, a $2.6&nbsp;million
decrease in administrative expense associated with legal, consulting and salaries expense reductions, a $2.7&nbsp;million decrease in advertising expense associated with a reduction in advertising
spending, and a $6.7&nbsp;million decrease in bad debt expense associated with a lower average student population and improvement in collections experience. The overall decrease in general and
administrative expense during the third quarter of 2007 reflects the impact of cost cutting measures enacted in response to declines in student population at a majority of our campuses and the effect
of our corporate realignment, which we believe has eliminated certain redundancies and improved operational efficiency. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;University
segment general and administrative expense decreased $15.9&nbsp;million, or 14.0%, from $113.4&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006, to $97.5&nbsp;million
during the third quarter of 2007, due primarily to a $7.3&nbsp;million decrease in bad debt expense, a $4.7&nbsp;million decrease in admissions expense, and a $2.4&nbsp;million decrease in
advertising expense. The decrease in admissions expense is primarily attributable to a reduction in average admissions advisor headcount. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Bad
debt expense, as a component of income from continuing operations, decreased by $6.7&nbsp;million, from $16.5&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006, to
$9.8&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. Bad debt expense and bad debt expense as a percentage of revenue incurred by each </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Income from continuing operations decreased $14.5&nbsp;million, or 37.6%, from $38.4&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006, to $23.9&nbsp;million
during the third quarter of 2007. This decrease is primarily attributable to the decline in University segment operating profit and operating profit margin percentage. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
discussed above, we believe that the declines in University segment operating profit and operating profit margin are primarily attributable to the negative effects of the ongoing
Probation status of the University segment's AIU universities, which has had a significant impact on student starts, student population, and revenue. </FONT></P>

Online's operating profit margin percentage declined from 33.0% during the third quarter of 2006 to 20.1% during the third quarter of 2007, due primarily to the continuing effects of
the ongoing SACS Probation status, price reductions of associate degree programs, and a student mix change that resulted in a decrease in revenue per student. As discussed above, declines in AIU
Online student starts, student population, and operating results have a disproportionate negative impact on University segment and CEC consolidated operating profits and operating profit margin
percentages. </FONT></P>

from operations generated by our Health Education segment increased $1.8&nbsp;million, from $0.3&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006, to $2.1&nbsp;million during
the third quarter of 2007. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in student starts and a larger student population during the third quarter of 2007, relative to student starts and
student population during the third quarter of 2006. </FONT></P>

is primarily attributable to an increase in educational services and facilities expense and general and administrative expenses of $5.3&nbsp;million, from $73.1&nbsp;million during the
third quarter of 2006, to $78.4&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. The increases in expenses were offset, in part, by an increase in revenue of $1.6&nbsp;million, from
$96.9&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006, to $98.5&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. </FONT></P>

from operations generated by our International segment decreased $4.0&nbsp;million, from income from operations of $0.9&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006, to a
loss from operations of $3.1&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. International segment loss from operations during the third quarter of 2007 includes an operating loss of
$2.6&nbsp;million incurred by our Istituto Marangoni schools, which we acquired in January of 2007. Income from operations generated by our INSEEC schools decreased $1.2&nbsp;million, from income
from operations of $0.8&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006, to a loss from operations of $0.4&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007. The $0.4&nbsp;million loss from operations
is primarily attributable to a $1.2&nbsp;million increase in academics expense and a $1.1&nbsp;million increase in
administrative expense as a result of an increase in student population during the third quarter of 2007, compared to student population during the third quarter of 2006, offset by an increase in
revenue of $1.4&nbsp;million. Schools and campuses representing our International segment schools generally do not instruct students during the months of July and August. </FONT></P>

has lower revenue per student than AIU, and an increase in students in our University segment's fully-online associate degree programs, which offer lower tuition rates than those of our
University segment's fully-online bachelor's degree and master's degree programs. The increase in online associate degree-seeking students was a result of a pricing reduction in our AIU Online
associate programs and strong student population growth at CTU Stonecliffe Online. The increase of CTU in the population is attributable to an increase in average CTU Online population and a decline
in average AIU student population and student starts during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, relative to average student population and student starts during the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2006. We believe that the declines in the AIU student population and student starts are primarily attributable to the continuing effects of the ongoing SACS Probation status,
which was announced on December&nbsp;6, 2005, and is negatively impacting those schools' ability to recruit new students. The adverse effects of the SACS Probation status have resulted in a decrease
in student population and revenue at each of our AIU universities and have most dramatically impacted the operating results of AIU Online. </FONT></P>

$270.2&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to $271.7&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. The Culinary Arts segment revenue
increase is primarily attributable to an increase in average student population and student starts during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, relative to average student population and
student starts during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. </FONT></P>

during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to $135.8&nbsp;million during the nine
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. The Colleges segment revenue decrease is primarily attributable to declines in average student population and student starts during the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2007, relative to average student population and student starts during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, and represents a continuation of weak operating performance
experienced in recent periods by a many of our Colleges segment schools. We believe that the continuing weak operating performance experienced by many of our Colleges segment schools is primarily

$124.5&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to $138.9&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. The Health Education segment revenue
increase is primarily attributable to (1)&nbsp;tuition price increases affected during 2006, (2)&nbsp;an increase in average student population and student starts during the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2007, relative to average student population and student starts during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, and (3)&nbsp;a shift in student enrollment mix that

which we acquired in January of 2007. Additionally, revenue generated by our INSEEC schools during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, increased by approximately $6.4&nbsp;million

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Educational services and facilities expense increased $19.5&nbsp;million, or 4.7%, from $418.3&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2006, to $437.8&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. Approximately $6.1&nbsp;million, or 31.2%, of the total increase is attributable to educational services and
facilities expense incurred by Istituto Marangoni, which we acquired in January of 2007. Educational services and facilities expense incurred by our existing schools increased by approximately
$13.4&nbsp;million. Of the $13.4&nbsp;million increase in educational services and facilities expense, academics costs increased $8.8&nbsp;million as a result of an increase in the average
student population during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, relative to average student population during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, a $6.5&nbsp;million increase
in occupancy costs associated with the start-up campuses in 2007, offset, in part, by a $1.9&nbsp;million decrease in other student-related expenses. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;University
segment educational services and facilities expense increased $0.9&nbsp;million, from $129.4&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to
$130.3&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. The increase is primarily attributable to a $2.4&nbsp;million increase in academics and occupancy expense associated
with the increase in student starts during the third quarter of 2007, relative to student starts during the third quarter of 2006, offset, in part, by a $1.5&nbsp;million decrease in other student
related expense. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>General and Administrative Expense  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;General and administrative expense decreased $35.4&nbsp;million, or 5.1%, from $695.6&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to
$660.2&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. Excluding general and administrative expense of approximately $6.1&nbsp;million incurred during the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2007 by Istituto Marangoni, which we acquired in January of 2007, general and administrative expense incurred by our existing schools during the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2007, decreased by approximately $41.5&nbsp;million. This decrease is primarily attributable to a $18.9&nbsp;million decrease in admissions expense associated with admissions
headcount reductions, a $17.9&nbsp;million decrease in bad debt expense, and a $3.1&nbsp;million decrease in advertising expense, offset, in part, by an increase of $4.5&nbsp;million in
administrative expense. The overall decrease in general and administrative expense during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, reflects the impact of cost cutting measures enacted in
response to declines in student population at a majority of our campuses and the effect of our corporate realignment, which we believe has eliminated certain redundancies and improved operational
efficiency. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;University
segment general and administrative expense decreased $33.8&nbsp;million, or 9.9%, from $340.0&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to
$306.2&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, due primarily to a $19.8&nbsp;million decrease in bad debt expense and an a $14.7&nbsp;million decrease in admissions
expense. The decrease in admissions expense is primarily attributable to a reduction in average admissions advisor headcount during the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2007, relative to average admissions advisor headcount during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. </FONT></P>

$82.0&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. Excluding the Health Education segment goodwill impairment charge of $85.8&nbsp;million recorded during the nine months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, income from operations decreased $118.1&nbsp;million, or 59.0%, from $200.1&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to
$82.0&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. This decrease is primarily attributable to the decline in University segment operating profit and operating profit margin
percentage. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
discussed above, we believe that the declines in University segment operating profit and operating profit margin are primarily attributable to the negative effects of the ongoing

Online's operating profit margin percentage declined from 42.2% during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to 26.3% during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2007, due primarily to the continuing effects of the ongoing SACS Probation status and price reductions of associate degree programs. </FONT></P>

$34.1&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. The decrease is primarily attributable to an increase in educational services and facilities expense and general and

$1.2&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decline in revenues as a result of a decrease in average student population and

during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, primarily as a result of a decrease in average invested cash balances. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Provision for income taxes decreased $43.7&nbsp;million, or 56.5%, from $77.5 million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to $33.8 million
during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. The annual effective tax rate for continuing operations decreased to 34.5% during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, from 60.2%
during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. The decrease in effective tax rate was primarily attributable to an $85.8&nbsp;million goodwill impairment charge for the Health Education
segment which we recorded during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, </FONT></P>

of which $7.3&nbsp;million was deductible for income tax purposes. The decrease is also attributable to a decrease in income before provision for income taxes of $31.0&nbsp;million, from
$128.9&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006, to $97.9&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, and a change in our estimate of the proportional
share of income from tax exempt interest. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>Loss from Discontinued Operations  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Loss from discontinued operations decreased $12.0&nbsp;million, or 47.4%, from $25.4&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to
$13.4&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. Loss from discontinued operations during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, includes no goodwill impairment
charge and no depreciation expense. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>Net Income  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net income increased $24.8&nbsp;million, or 95.8%, from $25.9&nbsp;million generated during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to
$50.7&nbsp;million generated during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. Excluding the Health Education segment goodwill impairment charge recorded during the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2006, of $78.5&nbsp;million, net of income tax benefit of $7.3&nbsp;million, net income decreased $53.7&nbsp;million, or 51.4%, from $104.4&nbsp;million during the nine
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, to $50.7&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. The decrease in net income is the result of the cumulative effect of the factors
discussed above. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>LIQUIDITY, FINANCIAL POSITION, AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of September&nbsp;30, 2007, cash and cash equivalents and investments totaled $442.8&nbsp;million. Our cash flows from operations have historically been
adequate to fulfill our liquidity requirements. We finance our operating activities and our organic growth primarily through cash generated from operations. We finance acquisitions primarily through
funding from a combination of credit facility borrowings, and cash generated from operations. We anticipate that we will be able to satisfy the cash requirements associated with, among other things,
our working capital needs, capital expenditures, and lease commitments through at least the next 12&nbsp;months primarily with cash generated by operations, existing cash balances, and, if
necessary, borrowings under our existing credit agreements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
ED requires that Title IV Program funds collected in advance of student billings be kept in a separate cash account until students are billed for the portion of their program related
to those Title IV Program funds collected. As of September&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006, the amount of restricted cash balances held in separate cash accounts was not significant. Restrictions on these
cash balances have not affected, nor do we believe that such restrictions will affect, our ability to fund our daily operations. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Sources and Uses of Cash  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash flows from discontinued operations are combined with cash flows from continuing operations in the operating, investing, and financing sections of our
consolidated statements of cash flows. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>Operating Cash Flows  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During the third quarter of 2007, net cash flows provided by operating activities totaled $105.0&nbsp;million, compared to net cash flows provided by operating
activities during the third quarter of 2006 of $83.2&nbsp;million. The increase in operating cash flows was primarily attributable to an increase in deferred tuition revenues as a result of advances
in cash tuition receipts for student starts in our International segment. During the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006, net cash flows provided by operating activities totaled
$193.2&nbsp;million and $214.7&nbsp;million, respectively. </FONT></P>

primary source of cash flows from operating activities is tuition collected from our students. Our students finance tuition costs through the use of a variety of funding sources,
including, among others, federal loan and grant programs, state grant programs, private loans and grants, private and institutional scholarships, and cash payments. The following table summarizes our
U.S. schools' cash receipts from tuition payments by fund source as a percentage of total tuition payments received for the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006. The
percentages reflected therein were determined based upon each U.S. school's cash receipts for the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006. </FONT></P>

Istituto Marangoni for approximately $37.2&nbsp;million, excluding acquired cash balances totaling approximately $6.9&nbsp;million. The purchase price was funded with cash generated from operating
activities. </FONT></P>

$21.0&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2007, compared to net purchases of available-for-sale investments of $40.9&nbsp;million during the third quarter of 2006.
During the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, net sales of available-for-sale investments were $18.6&nbsp;million, compared to net purchases of
available-for-sale investments of $56.1&nbsp;million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Capital Expenditures.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Capital expenditures decreased $4.1&nbsp;million, or 24.3%, from $16.9&nbsp;million during the

revenue, including revenue generated by our schools and campuses held for sale. During the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006, capital expenditures were $44.1&nbsp;million and

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During the third quarter of 2007, net cash used in financing activities totaled $20.3&nbsp;million, an $18.0&nbsp;million increase relative to net cash used
in financing activities during the third quarter of 2006 of $2.3&nbsp;million. The increase in net cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to an increase in cash used for
repurchases of our common stock. During the third quarter of 2007, we repurchased 0.9&nbsp;million shares of our common stock for approximately $24.3&nbsp;million. During the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2007, we repurchased 4.9&nbsp;million shares for approximately $149.2&nbsp;million. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other Current Assets.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The decrease in other current assets is primarily attributable to the remission during the first
quarter of 2007 of taxes of approximately $15.4&nbsp;million withheld as of December&nbsp;31, 2006, in connection with December&nbsp;2006 stock option exercises and an approximately
$5.4&nbsp;million increase in tenant improvement receivables. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Goodwill.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The increase in goodwill is primarily attributable to goodwill of approximately $28.8&nbsp;million recorded in
connection with our January&nbsp;2007 acquisition of Istituto Marangoni. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accounts Payable.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our accounts payable balance as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, included $2.6&nbsp;million which is
attributable to our Istituto Marangoni schools, which we acquired in January 2007. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Deferred Tuition Revenue.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The increase in deferred tuition revenue is primarily attributable to advances in cash tuition
receipts for July&nbsp;2007 student starts in our Colleges and International segments. The increase in deferred tuition revenues in our International segment was primarily attributable to a
$19.8&nbsp;million balance in deferred tuition revenue as a result of the Istituto Marangoni acquisition in January of 2007. Historically, a majority of our schools have a significant increase in
student starts during the month of July. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Treasury Stock.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As discussed above, during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, we repurchased approximately
0.9&nbsp;million shares of our common stock for approximately $24.3&nbsp;million at an average price of approximately $26.86 per share. </FONT></P>

<BR></FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>Item&nbsp;3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk    <BR>    </B></FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We use various techniques to manage our market
risk, including, from time to time, the use of derivative financial instruments. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Interest Rate Exposure  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our borrowings under our credit agreements bear annual interest at variable rates tied to the prime rate and the Eurocurrency rate. Total outstanding borrowings
under these credit agreements were $11.0&nbsp;million and $11.5&nbsp;million as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, and December&nbsp;31, 2006, respectively. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
weighted average interest rate of borrowings under our credit agreements was 4.66% as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, and December&nbsp;31, 2006, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition, we had capital lease obligations totaling $3.5&nbsp;million as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, and December&nbsp;31, 2006, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
estimate that the book value of our investments, debt instruments, and any related derivative financial instruments approximated their fair values as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, and
December&nbsp;31, 2006.
We believe that the exposure of our consolidated financial position and results of operations and cash flows to adverse changes in interest rates is not significant. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Foreign Currency Exposure  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are subject to foreign currency exchange exposures arising from current and anticipated transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and
the translation of foreign currency balance sheet accounts into U.S. dollar balance sheet accounts. Specifically, we are subject to risks associated with fluctuations in the value of the Euro, the
Canadian dollar, and the British pound vis-&agrave;-vis the U.S. dollar. Our investment in our foreign operations as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, was not significant
to our consolidated financial position, and the book values of the assets and liabilities of such foreign operations as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, approximated their fair values. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We completed an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Report under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule&nbsp;13a-15(b) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act"), as
amended. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September&nbsp;30, 2007, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to
provide reasonable assurance that (i)&nbsp;the information required to be disclosed by us in this Report was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
SEC's rules and forms, and (ii)&nbsp;information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control
system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must
reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective
control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our
company have been detected. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;These
inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be
circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any
evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance
with policies or procedures. </FONT></P>
