Release of Student Record Information

  • COLLEGE STAFF

    Certain college staff may request student record information to 

    • Provide education or services to a student
    • Advise a student
    • Accomplish job assignments

    The appropriate office will release student record information to other college staff with a legitimate educational interest.

  • OTHER SCHOOLS OR INSTITUTIONS

    Another school or institution, where the student intends to enroll, may request the transfer of student records. The Registrar will make a reasonable effort to notify the student at the student's last known address, unless the disclosure was initiated by the student and give the student, upon request, a copy of the records as provided under OAR 589.004.0200 (m) and the opportunity to request a hearing as provided under OAR 589.004.0350. 

  • CONTRACTORS

    Contractors may request student record information to accomplish the work they’re doing with the college. The Registrar will provide the required student record information within the contractual agreement.

  • OTHER AUTHORITIES

    Student record information may be requested to conduct audits, accreditation, program reviews or to fulfill other legal requirements. If appropriate, the Registrar will send a copy of any court order or subpoena and relevant records to the student at the last known address and provide only the required student record information required under the law.

  • RESEARCHERS

    Researchers may request student record information for academic research. The Registrar will fulfill the request with no personally identifiable information revealed. Personally identifiable information may be provided to other organizations in accordance with the law.

  • EMERGENCIES

    In an emergency, designated college employees may use their professional judgment to release student record information and student location on campus.
