The Federal Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) prohibits EXP staff from sharing a student’s academic record with someone other than the student. In order to share a student’s academic record with another party, including parents, the student must sign a FERPA waiver with the Office of the Registrar. A FERPA waiver allows us to share student information, but it does not require us to do so. Visit the Office of the Registrar website for more information regarding FERPA as well as the option for students give online access to final grades through Student Self-Service via the Proxy Access option.
