FEDERAL FAMILY EDUCATION RIGHTS AND PRIVACY ACT (FERPA)

In compliance with the Federal Family Education Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), as amended, the University is prohibited from providing certain information from student records to a third party, such information as grades, billing, tuition and fees assessments, financial aid (including scholarships, grants, work-study, or loan amounts) and other student record information.  This restriction applies, but is not limited to, parents, spouse, or a sponsor.  Read our FERPA policy.

Students may grant the University permission to release student record information to a third party by submitting a completed FERPA Student Information Release Authorization.  This form allows specific third parties access to student record information.  Specified information will be made available only if requested by the authorized third party.  The University does not automatically send information to a third party.  This form does not cover release of transcripts.
