institutions utilizing such process, and shall also take into
account the cultural diversity, economic circumstances, and
educational preparation of the populations served by the

or certificate offered by the institution of higher
education.
``(B) The student has completed a secondary school
education in a home school setting that is treated as a home

(3) Repeal.--Effective June 30, 2012, section 309(c) of

eligible not-for-profit servicer so described is also a
corporation described in subparagraphs (A) and (B) of section
150(d)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, then the
affiliated entity of that servicer (described in subsection
(c)(1)(B)(ii)) shall receive the contract with the Secretary
under paragraph (4)(A), and an allocation under paragraph
(4)(B), rather than the eligible not-for-profit servicer
described in clause (i) or (ii) of subsection (c)(1)(B).
``(6) Special rule for not-for-profit servicers with shared
management or common control.--Notwithstanding any other
provision of this section, in the case of entities that
otherwise meet the definition of an eligible not-for-profit
servicer under this section but 2 or more of the same
individuals serve as part of the management, board of
directors, or other governing body of more than one such
entity, or the Secretary determines that one entity controls,
is controlled by, or is under common control with, another
such entity, all such entities with that shared management or
control shall receive one aggregate allocation under
paragraph (4)(B) and be treated for purposes of paragraph (4)
as though all of such entities were a single eligible not-
for-profit servicer.''.
Sec. 309.  Section 307 of division F of the Consolidated
Appropriations Act of 2012 (Public Law 112-74) shall continue
in effect until March 27, 2013.

(b) and (c) of that section) in order to carry out activities
authorized under that section with respect to any ESEA
program funded in this Act and without respect to the source
