Policy Governing Release of Information in Student Records

Social Security Number
In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974 and Indiana PL22 of 1977, students or applicants are advised that the requested disclosure of their Social Security number to the university is voluntary. The student has the right to refuse disclosure of this number or request its removal from records without penalty. A special nine-digit student identification number will then be assigned for the duration of the student's involvement with the university. The Social Security number will be used to identify records such as the student's transcript, registration, grade reports, transcript requests, and certification requests; as an identifier for grants, loans, and other financial aid programs; and to determine eligibility, certify school attendance, and report student status. The student's Social Security number is not disclosed to individuals or agencies outside Indiana University except in accordance with the Indiana University policy on release of student information.

Student Records
In compliance with Section 438 of the "General Education Provision Act" (as amended) entitled "Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act," the following constitutes the institution's policy that instructs the student in the procedures available to provide appropriate access to personal records while protecting confidentiality.

  1. Certain definitions and principles contained in the law and proposed guidelines are specifically adopted in the policy:
    1. "Student" is defined as one who has attended or is attending Indiana University and whose records are on file with the university.
    2. Educational records do not include files retained by individuals and not accessible to any other person except a substitute faculty/staff member.
    3. Public information is limited to name, address, phone, major field of study, dates of attendance, admission or enrollment status, campus, school, college or division, class standing, degree and awards, activities, sports, and athletic information. Records of arrest and/or convictions and traffic accident information are public information and may be released to anyone making inquiry.
  2. Public information shall be released freely unless the student files the appropriate form requesting that certain public information not be released. This form is available at the Office of the Registrar. Public information that cannot be restricted includes name, enrollment status, degrees, and dates of attendance.
A student may review his or her record upon request and may ask for deletions or corrections of the record in a hearing process described in detail in the Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities, and Conduct, copies of which are available from the Office of Student Affairs, Library Building 152. References, recommendations, and other similar documents may carry a voluntary waiver relinquishing the student's right to review this specific material. The student may also release the record to others by signing a written release.

Application for Graduation

It is each student's responsibility to apply for graduation when nearing completion of the M.S.F. program. Applications must be filed in the Graduate Business Programs Office by October 1 for May graduation, March 1 for August graduation, and June 1 for December graduation. This allows the M.S.F. program staff to verify academic records and ensure graduation requirements have been met.
