If a high school student is 17 and taking classes at Muskegon Community College, are the FERPA rights with the parent?
No. Section 99.3 of the FERPA regulations defines an eligible student as an individual who has reached the age of 18 OR who attends a post-secondary institution. If a college student is under the age of 18, that student is still guaranteed FERPA rights because he is attending a post-secondary institution.
