Student Confidentiality (FERPA)
Notice is hereby given that the colleges in Seattle Community College District VI have adopted institutional procedures in compliance with Public Law 93-380, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. It provides students the opportunity to view their educational records upon request. In addition, no information contained in a student's file will be released to any individual or organization without prior written consent of the student concerned. This does not include directory information relating to the act of enrollment in the college. Exceptions also include those records requested by subpoena, in emergency situations, in compliance with the Solomon Amendment (Military requests), Department of Education requests, and information provided to the National Student Clearinghouse. Students may request, through written notice, that the college not release directory information. This remains in effect until the student notifies the college that directory information can be released. Students desiring more detailed information may inquire at the Registration Office.
