Education Records


Education records are defined as official records that are directly related to a student and maintained by the University Registrar.

When a record contains personally identifiable information about more than one student, the student may inspect and review only the information that relates to him/her personally.

Request to Correct Education Records

Students have the right to request an amendment of their education records if he/she believes the record is inaccurate or misleading. The request for amendment must be made in writing and include a notarized signature. The request may be sent to the attention of the Office of the Registrar and must identify the part(s) of the education records to be amended and specifying the reasons why the student believes the information is inaccurate or misleading.

The Office of the Registrar shall notify the student of the decision within 15 days of the receipt of the request. If the Office of the Registrar denies the student request to correct education records, the student has the right to request an appeal. All appeal requests must be submitted to the Office of the Provost and must be postmarked or emailed within 15 days after the initial denial was sent. Any requests for appeal that are sent after the 15 day deadline has passed will be denied, and the matter shall be deemed closed.

Once the Office of the Provost receives the student’s appeal request he/she will render a written decision to the student within 15 days of the receipt of the request. The Office of the Provost’s decision is final and is not subject to further appeal.
