FERPA实务声明

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) as amended is a federal law which is designed to protect the privacy of and limit access to the educational records of students. This means that institutions generally must withhold such information from 父母 and others who believe their relationship with the student entitles them to have the information, sometimes even on occasions when the student prefers the information to be released. 结果是, 父母, 监护人, or spouses often ask why they cannot have information about a student’s grades, 金融义务, 或者和大学站在一起. 受联邦隐私法保护的教育记录通常包括成绩, 住房信息, 医疗(包括住院), 注册和出勤信息, 财务状况, 纪律处分程序的结果, 等.

如果学生没有被允许向他人发布信息, the University generally CANNOT release the information under the provisions of FERPA. The University is able to release information IF there is proof of the student’s status as a dependent under the Internal Revenue Service Code for the period covered on file. 然而, tax returns on file with the University cover the preceding year; often the proof is out of date and may no longer be applicable.

Students grant Immaculata大学 permission to release information concerning their educational records to a third party by submitting the FERPA agreement form. Students must identify each individual to whom they wish to grant access/information regarding their student records. To identify people, students must log into SSIU via MyIU and fill out the FERPA Agreement. 提交时, the University will be able to disclose information and respond to inquiries from the designated individuals. The consent will remain valid until students leave the University; however, 他们可以随时修改同意信息.
