STUDENT CONSENT TO RELEASE
EDUCATION RECORDS
PRIVACY RIGHTS OF STUDENTS
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords students certain rights with respect to their education records under Chapter 20,
United States Code, section 1232g and other implementing regulations. FERPA requires each student be notified annually of the rights accorded
them by FERPA. These rights include (1) The right to inspect and review their education records within 45 days of a request for access. (2) The right
to request an amendment to the education record if the student finds the records to be inaccurate, misleading, or in violation of their privacy
rights. (3) The right to provide written consent before the college discloses personally identifiable information from the student’s education
records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. (4) The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of
Education concerning alleged failures by the college to comply with the requirements of FERPA. FERPA provides for a category of student
information termed “directory information” which is available to all persons upon request unless the student places a “confidential hold” on
his/her records.
DIRECTORY INFORMATION
Student’s name, address, telephone number, date of birth, major field of study, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and
heights of members of athletic teams, dates of attendance, degrees and awards received, and the most recent previous educational agency or
institution attended by the student.
Education records other than directory information may be released only with the written permission of the student or as otherwise permitted by
law.
