What is the FERPA indicator in the SIS, and what does it mean?
The FERPA indicator () denotes that a student has requested a restriction on the release of all her or his directory information. Ohio State’s policies on release of student information have not changed as a result of implementing the SIS. Refer to The Ohio State University’s Policy Concerning Privacy and Release of Student Education Records (http://www.ureg.ohio-state.edu/ourweb/more/Content/ferpa_pg1.html), maintained by the Office of the Registrar, for more information on FERPA.
