FERPA

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) further provides that certain portions of a student record may be deemed directory information and be released to a third party without the written consent of the student. TCC designates student name, mailing address, degrees or certificates earned, major, last semester of attendance, and honor awards as directory information. The College may release a student’s directory information without the written release of the student as allowed by FERPA. The College is authorized to obtain or provide educational records as allowed by law. A directory is printed each semester listing student name, city, and state, to comply with the Oklahoma Records Act.

A student may request the College not to release directory information. The request must be in writing, signed by the student, and submitted to the Admissions/Enrollment Services Office prior to the end of the fourth week of a semester or the end of the second week of a summer term. Students registering after this deadline may sign an information withholding request at the time of enrollment.
