Is there a specific form I need to fill out?

A Release of Information form is required for students requesting the release of non-public information.  The form can be printed off, signed, and faxed to our office at 810-762-3346.   Please be sure to include all pertinent information.

If you have a form from an insurance company or loan agency, please bring or mail it to our office.  We will complete the form and mail it to the proper address.

Can verifications be done over the phone without a release of information form?

Our office is limited by FERPA regulations on what we can and cannot release without written permission.  Under normal circumstances we will only release a student's major, degree, dates of attendance and/or class level without the student's written permission.

Can I prevent the release of items designated as public information?

Students who desire to prevent the release of public information must complete and submit a Confidentiality Agreement to the Office of the Registrar.

This form can also be picked up at the Office of the Registrar.

Why can't prospective employers or health care administrators receive verbal confirmation of my public information?

The Office of the Registrar cannot release any information, including items designated as public, for those students who have elected to submit a Confidentiality Agreement.

In order for information to be released while this agreement is in place, the student will need to fill complete a release of information form detailing the information to be released and to whom.
