To protect the privacy of students’ educational records (including but not limited to grades and tuition statements), these records are considered confidential under the federal law of Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), and are protected from third parties (including parents and families).
FERPA provides students, including those under 18, with the following rights:
• Educational records are protected from third parties. • Students can inspect, review and correct educational records. • Schools must have students’ permission to release educational records to third parties. • Educational records do not include directory information (i.e., name, e-mail address, telephone). • Students have the option to decline release of directory information. Students are responsible for sharing education-related records like grades, tuition statements, attendance and/or transcripts with third parties who have a legitimate right to know. ucsd.edu/catalog/front/ferpa.html
