2. The guaranty instrument shall be based on the school's approved capacity. A guaranty of $10,000 for up to 25 students and $5,000 for each additional 25 students shall apply.

3. In the event a guaranty instrument is terminated, the license to operate will terminate within 30 calendar days if a replacement bond or other instrument is not filed with the department.
