What is FERPA?

1974年的《买球app》保护学生教育记录的隐私. The FERPA Act provides for the right to inspect and review education records, 寻求修改这些记录和限制从记录中披露信息的权利. 立法的目的是保护学生的权利,确保教育记录的私密性和准确性. 该法案适用于所有接受教育部长管理的联邦援助的机构.

What rights does FERPA afford students with respect to their education records?

*有权在学院收到访问请求之日起45天内检查和审查其教育记录.

学生应向注册主任办公室提交书面请求,并确定他们希望检查的记录. 办公室的工作人员将安排访问,并通知学生可以检查记录的时间和地点. If the requested records are not maintained by the 注册商’s Office, the student will be notified of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed.

*有权要求修改学生认为不准确或具有误导性的教育记录.

学生可以要求学院修改他们认为不准确或误导的记录. 他们应以书面形式向注册主任办公室提交请求,并清楚地指明他们希望更改的记录部分, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading.

If the university decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, 大学将通知学生有关决定,并告知学生他或她有权就修改请求举行听证会. 有关听证会的其他信息将在通知听证会时提供给学生.

*有权同意披露学生教育记录内的个人身份资料, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.

允许在未经同意的情况下披露信息的一个例外是向有“合法教育利益”的学校官员披露信息.” A school official is a person employed by the college in an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom the college has contracted (such as an attorney, 审计师, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance 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的职业责任而需要审查教育记录,那么他就有“合法的教育利益”. 大学注册处将根据需要确定“合法教育利益”.
