Can students control disclosure of “Directory Information”?
Yes, students are notified of their right to control the disclosure of “Directory Information” in the Annual Notification of Rights Under FERPA which is published in the online bulletin. They are required to complete a Request to Prevent Disclosure of Directory Information and submit the form in person at the Registrar’s Office with a photo ID. If a student elects to control disclosure, no information will be disclosed on the student, nor will verification of enrollment be given to any callers.
