Student Consent for Release of Education Information
What is FERPA? The Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) (20 U.S.C. § 1232g; 4 CFR Part 99) is a Federal law that protects the privacy of student educational records. The law applies to all schools that receive funds under an application program of the U.S. Department of Education. FERPA gives parents certain rights with respect to their children’s educational records. These rights transfer to the student when he or she reaches the age of 18 or attends a school beyond the high school level.
How may parents obtain education information? The quickest, easiest way for parents to receive information about their child’s grades, financial statement, or other student information is for the student to provide it. Students can access information online and provide a copy to their parents. Student records are available at the student self-service website- oasis.rose.edu. Parents may also make a payment to the student’s bill through this website. This form allows parents to obtain educational record information directly from college officials if the student consents to such access in a non-coercive environment.
Understanding my privacy rights under FERPA, I consent to grant access to my educational records to the individual listed below as follows:
- This release allows the individuals below to discuss my educational records with College officials or to schedule an appointment to view my educational records in person.
- This release permits the individual(s) below the ability to either view and/or make changes to my educational records, request official documents, or otherwise conduct educational business on my behalf (drop/add classes, order transcripts), only where I have given specific permission below by initialing my choice(s).
- College officials may discuss details of all educational records with the individuals listed below, including grades, class schedule, academic standing (probation, etc.), disciplinary records and cashier information; it excludes sharing information from police.
