PRIVACY RIGHTS OF STUDENTS
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) aords 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.
