Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 was established to protect the privacy of student records. CMU is, therefore, not allowed to release details of a student’s financial account without prior written consent from the student. Authorization to Release Information forms, which will allow release of non-academic information to specific individuals, are available online at https://www2.cmich.edu/ess/registrar/RegistrarRecords/Pages/Confidentiality.aspx on CentralLink.

See the Family Rights and Privacy Act for more information.
