What is FERPA?
FERPA (the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) is a federal law that protects the privacy of your educational records. It gives you the right to access your records, request corrections, and control who else can see them. Without your written permission, we generally cannot share your academic, financial, or disciplinary information with anyone—even your parents or guardians.
What Does Completing the Release Form Mean?
By completing the FERPA release form, you’re permitting Wagner College to share specific parts of your educational record with the individuals you name (such as parents or guardians). You choose what information can be shared and with whom. This form does not give others control over your records—it just allows the university to talk with them about the areas you specify.
