FERPA

FERPA (the Federal Educational Rights and Privacy Act) is a federal law that governs the privacy of student education records, access to those records and disclosure of information from them. FERPA requires written consent from students for the disclosure of financial and educational information and records. Without written consent, MIAD is legally prohibited from releasing a student’s personal, academic or financial information to anyone except the student, regardless of the student’s age.

Only designated “directory” information can be shared with anyone outside MIAD.

Restricted information includes but is not limited to grades, disciplinary history and action, health concerns, and the remaining balance in accounts, including the Meal Plan. Exceptions to FERPA are allowed in life-threatening emergencies.

Questions about FERPA should be directed to Jean Weimer, Registrar; 414‑847‑3272, jeanweimer@miad.edu.
