随着学生从高中过渡到大学, it is important for students and families to understand their rights under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).

The primary goal of FERPA is to ensure that students have access to and control over their educational records. 一旦学生在博彩平台排名注册, control over educational records lies with the student, 不论年龄大小.
FERPA保证学生有权:
- 查阅和审查他们的教育记录
- Request amendments to inaccurate or misleading educational records
- Consent to disclosure of personally identifiable information contained within educational records

Educational records consist of a variety of information maintained about students by University officials. By definition, educational records are protected from unauthorized release under FERPA. Educational records include, but are not limited to:
- Application, admission, matriculation and enrollment information
- 考试成绩、分班成绩和试镜结果
- Grades and academic progress information (transcripts, 成绩报告, 考勤记录, 早期成绩, 等.)
- Recommendation statements and performance evaluations
- Financial information (billing statements, payment histories, 等.)
- Financial aid information (loan and scholarship forms, award notifications, 等.)
- 学生行为记录
- 咨询服务记录
FERPA dictates that a student’s educational records cannot be released to a third party – including a parent – unless the student provides consent or unless the third party falls in one of the following exemption categories:
- University officials with a legitimate educational interest in the information (i.e., 教师, staff and administrators who require educational records to provide instructional support, administrative support and/or service to the student or the student’s family members)
- 执法人员
- A person or entity with whom the University has contracted (e.g.、律师、审计员、催收代理人)
Information relating to a student’s educational record is made available to third-parties only after the student has submitted a signed and dated release specifying the person or persons to whom information is to be disclosed. The University maintains a record of the release of educational record information to non-exempted third parties. Any student wishing to authorize the release of educational records to a third party may do so by logging into My.博彩平台排名 and completing the FERPA Academic and 目录 Release on the task tile (available f或者一个 few weeks at the start of the academic year), or on the FERPA Release tile on the Student 首页page when it’s no longer available on the task tile.

目录 information is public information that may be shared with a third party without an express release from the student.
For more information about what constitutes directory information, consult the 亚洲博彩平台排名学生手册.
除非学生明确要求, directory information may be released to any third party for reasons deemed legitimate by University officials. 通常, directory information is released to a third party when it serves the best interest of the student (publication in honors lists, 学生目录, 新闻稿, 等.) or in accordance with a request from an external authority with legitimate need for the information.
Any student wishing to prevent the release of directory information may do so by logging into My.博彩平台排名 and completing the FERPA Academic and 目录 Release on the task tile (available f或者一个 few weeks at the start of the academic year), or on the FERPA Release tile on the Student 首页page when it’s no longer available on the task tile.
