Kortenhoeven wrote in the closure announcement that "heightened accreditation expectations, and the loss of federal funds" also played a role in the closure decision. The Department of Education recognized PCC as a Hispanic-serving institution in 2023, providing it with $3 million, which was to be distributed over five years in $600,000 increments. But last year the Trump administration deemed such programs unconstitutional and stopped awarding related grants to minority-serving institutions.
