Family Educational Rights and Privacy ACT (FERPA)

Under the terms of FERPA, United Tribes Technical College has established the following as directory information and may be released to those requesting it unless the student specifically requests otherwise on the form provided or by submitting written notification to the Office of the Registrar:

  1. Student Name
  2. Local Address/Phone
  3. Permanent Address/Phone
  4. E-mail Address
  5. Date and Place of Birth
  6. Hometown
  7. Degrees and Awards Received & Dates
  8. Dates of Attendance (Current and Past)
  9. Full or Part-time Enrollment Status

  11. Participation in Officially Recognized Sports
  12. Weight/Height of Member of Athletic Teams
  13. Most Recently Attended Education Institute
  14. Major Field of Study
  15. Academic Level
  16. Residency Status
  17. Photographs

With the exception of security reports, all other information may not be released without written consent of the student. Grades, social security numbers, ethnic background and student schedules may not be released to anyone other than the student — and never over the phone.

Note: Students are given the opportunity to restrict directory information each year. If the student restricts the release of directory information, a notation of “n” is placed on the directory information and no information can be released on that student without further written permission from the student. Appropriate faculty/staff response: “There is no information available from that person.”

Any questions concerning FERPA may be referred to the Office of the Registrar.
