STUDENT PRIVACY & FERPA
UVM takes your student's privacy seriously. We work within federal policies to ensure your young adults' rights are protected throughout their time at UVM. University officials are constrained in what they can share with parents/families, absent consent of the student, by the Family Educational Rights & Privacy Act. This includes things like grades, schedules, transcripts, billing information and more.
Initially this might feel counterintuitive to supporting your student in this transition - but consider it a great jumping off point for setting expectations and establishing clear lines of communication between you, well before the start of the academic year. Additionally, learning more about Proxy Access could resolve some frustrations around accessing financial information.
For more regarding students’ rights with respect to access to, and privacy of their student educational record - read the University's FERPA Rights Disclosure Policy (pdf).
