Following a qui tam lawsuit alleging fraud against the Post-9/11 GI Bill in violation of the False Claims Act, Caldwell University has agreed to pay more than $4.8 million to the United States.  The alleged misconduct occurred between 2011 and 2013 and involved falsely claiming to the Department of Veterans Affairs that classes were developed and taught by the university, when in fact they were developed and taught by an unapproved subcontractor.  Caldwell had also charged the Post-9/11 GI Bill up to 30 times the prices charged to others for the same courses, leading the government to pay over $24 million in tuition.  USAO NJ
