Education records include such things as graded papers, exams, transcripts, notes from a conversation with or about a student that are placed in a student’s file for others in the department to reference. According to FERPA, personally identifiable information in an education record may not be released without prior written consent from the student. Some examples of information that MAY NOT BE RELEASED without the prior written consent of the student include: Social Security number grades/exam scores Grade Point Average (GPA) current class schedule parent name and address race/ethnicity gender country of citizenship religious affiliation disciplinary status marital status test scores (e.g., SAT, GRE, etc.) The university will not release personally identifiable information from a student’s education record without the student’s prior written consent.
