Understanding FERPA
What Is FERPA?
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law in the United States designed to protect the privacy of student education records. FERPA grants students specific rights regarding access to their educational information and restricts the disclosure of personally identifiable information without proper consent.
Its purpose: ensure that educational institutions maintain appropriate safeguards when collecting, storing, using, and sharing student information.
As an organization working closely with students and educational institutions, Get2Uni recognizes the importance of these standards and supports practices that promote responsible data management and student confidentiality.
