It is ultimately the student’s responsibility to meet all graduation requirements. Academic policies and procedures are determined by the faculty to ensure the integrity of the academic program. Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) Concordia University establishes relationships with its students based on their status as emerging adults, and is committed to fostering their development and self-direction. In this situation, the university expects that its students will assume primary responsibility for their education and well-being. Concordia University also recognizes its obligation to the parents of its students to act in the students' best interest. In defining the terms of its relationship with students and parents, the university's actions are informed by federal and state law, including the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). This act ensures that most communication between a student and the university is considered confidential, and that such information about a student's experience can be shared with the parents of an individual student only under very specific circumstances as defined by federal law. All rights accorded a student under this law take effect at the time of enrollment in a post-secondary educational program regardless of the student. The purpose of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is to protect the confidentiality of student educational records. Educational records are those records directly related to students and maintained by an institution or a party acting for the institution. Personally identifiable student information is protected by FERPA. Violations of FERPA place the University at risk. The penalty for noncompliance can be withdrawal of Department of Education funds from the institution. In addition, disclosure of student information could subject both the University and the individual disclosing the information to criminal and civil penalties. One of the main emphases of FERPA is that personally identifiable information may not be released without prior written consent from the student. However, the university is permitted to disclose student information without written consent to “school officials” whom the institution has determined have a legitimate educational interest”. Although a person has been designated as a “school official”, he/she does not have inherent rights to any and all education record information. Additionally, the school official must demonstrate a legitimate educational interest as opposed to a personal or private interest and such a determination must be made on a case by case basis. Disclosure to a school official having legitimate educational interest does not constitute authorization to share that information with a third party without the student’s written permission. 1. All individuals who are attending or have attended Concordia University have certain rights with respect to their educational records. These rights include: • Right to review and inspect their educational records; • Right to request the amendment of their educational records to ensure that they are not inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of their privacy or other rights; Pg. 80 of 118
