Rights and Privacy Related to Education Records (FERPA)

Student Rights under FERPA

家庭教育权利和隐私法案(FERPA)为学生提供了有关其教育记录的某些权利. These rights are as follows:

  1. 有权在机构收到访问请求之日起45天内检查和审查学生的教育记录.
    Requests for review of specific records must be made in writing. 一个学生谁寻求只审查健康或职业记录应提交书面请求与卫生服务主任这样做, the director of the counseling service, or the Career Development Center. All other requests should be made at the Office of the Dean of the College. 适当的学院官员将安排访问并通知学生可以检查记录的时间和地点. 如果向其提出请求的官员没有保存记录, 该官员应告知该学生应向其提出请求的正确官员.
  2. 有权要求修改学生认为不准确或误导的教育记录.
    学生可以要求学院修改她认为不准确或误导的记录. She should write to the College official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record she wants changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the College decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, a College official will notify the student of the decision. 学生有权要求就被拒绝的修改请求举行听证会. 有关聆讯程序的其他资料将应要求提供.
  3. 有权同意披露包含在学生的教育记录中的个人身份信息, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.
    These exceptions include the disclosure of "directory information" as detailed below and disclosure of any information to: teachers and other College officials who have legitimate educational interests; to officials of other institutions in which the student intends to enroll; to certain authorized state and federal officials; to appropriate parties in connection with financial aid to the student; to organizations conducting certain studies for or on behalf of the College; to accrediting organizations; to comply with a judicial order or lawfully ordered subpoena; and to appropriate officials in the case of health and safety emergency.

    A school official is a person employed by the College in an administrative, supervisory, academic or research or support support staff position (including law enforcement personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom the College has contracted as its agent to provide a service instead of using College employees or officials (such as an attorney, auditor, IT specialist, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student or appointed volunteer serving on an official committee or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. 如果学校官员为了履行他或她在学院的专业职责而需要审查教育记录,则学校官员具有合法的教育利益.

    The regulations of the Act make clear that, 根据美国国税局的规定,如果学生是父母的家属, 学生的教育记录中的信息可能会在未经学生事先同意的情况下透露给家长. 这是学院的政策,以书面形式通知学生和她的父母的学术试用, required withdrawal, and suspension. In communications with parents concerning other matters, 通常情况下,学院的政策是尊重学生的隐私,未经学生事先同意,不得披露教育记录中的信息.

  4. The right to file a complaint with the U.S. 就大学涉嫌未能遵守FERPA的要求向教育部投诉.
    The name and address of the Office that administers FERPA is:

    Family Policy Compliance Office
    U.S. Department of Education
    400 Maryland Avenue, S.W.
    Washington, DC 20202-5920
