A Few Comments about Student Grades

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) is a federal law intended to protect the privacy of student educational records accumulated form early childhood through college. FERPA, sometimes referred to as the Buckley Amendment, provides parents with certain rights with respect to their child’s K-12 education records. However, once a student reaches the age of 18 or enters college, the rights previously held by the parents transfer exclusively to the student.

Parents can obtain information from the college only if their child has provided the college with written instructions to do so. Without the Authorization for Disclosure of Confidential Information form, you will need to obtain academic information directly from your child.

Additional Resources for Parents

• If your student is struggling with the demands (both academic and social) of college, please encourage them to engage with our in-person or online mental health resources. More information is available on .

• If your student has a learning disability, make sure they use the various accommodations that 51ÉçÇø University provides. More information is available on our Disability Services page.
