FERPA is the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, a federal law that protects the privacy of student educational records and gives students certain rights over their educational records. The law applies to all schools who receive federal funds, including the University of Portland. Current and former students are protected under FERPA, and protection begins once a student enrolls.
Additional information is available from the Registrar’s Office and the U.S. Dept of Education.
