D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 16, r. 16-1210
If the Department determines that there are grounds for denial, suspension, or revocation of a proprietary school license or agent's permit under this chapter, the Department shall first serve upon the applicant or licensee a written notice specifying with particularity the violations in question.
The notice shall also inform the applicant or licensee of the right to request, within seven (7) days from service of notice, a hearing before the Department at which time the applicant or licensee may show cause why the application should not be denied, or the license or permit suspended or revoked.
The notice to the applicant or licensee shall also specify what action, whether it be denial, suspension, or revocation, is contemplated and that the proposed action shall be taken if no hearing is requested.
If action adverse to the applicant or licensee is taken by the Department after the hearing held pursuant to this section, the applicant or licensee shall have the right to appeal to the Board of Appeals and Review the Department's decision to refuse, suspend, or revoke the license. The request for an appeal shall be made within twenty- one (21) days following the Department's action.
