Sec. 295m. Prohibition against discrimination on basis of sex
The Secretary may not make a grant, loan guarantee, or interest
subsidy payment under this subchapter to, or for the benefit of, any
school of medicine, osteopathic medicine, dentistry, veterinary
medicine, optometry, pharmacy, podiatric medicine, or public health or
any training center for allied health personnel, or graduate program in
clinical psychology, unless the application for the grant, loan
guarantee, or interest subsidy payment contains assurances satisfactory
to the Secretary that the school or training center will not
discriminate on the basis of sex in the admission of individuals to its
training programs. The Secretary may not enter into a contract under
this subchapter with any such school or training center unless the
school, training center, or graduate program furnishes assurances
satisfactory to the Secretary that it will not discriminate on the basis
of sex in the admission of individuals to its training programs. In the
case of a school of medicine which--
(1) on October 13, 1992, is in the process of changing its
status as an institution which admits only female students to that
of an institution which admits students without regard to their sex,
and
(2) is carrying out such change in accordance with a plan
approved by the Secretary,
the provisions of the preceding sentences of this section shall apply
only with respect to a grant, contract, loan guarantee, or interest
subsidy to, or for the benefit of such a school for a fiscal year
beginning after June 30, 1979.
