While SCLI is not under the regulation of the U.S. Department of Education, it follows the guidelines of FERPA (20 U.S.C. § 1232g; 34 CFR Part 99), which is outlined in the following section.
* * *
FERPA is a Federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. The law applies to all schools that receive funds under an applicable program of the U.S. Department of Education. FERPA gives parents certain rights with respect to their children’s education records. These rights transfer to the student when he or she reaches the age of 18 or attends a school beyond the high school level. Students to whom the rights have transferred are “eligible students.”
Parents or eligible students have the right to inspect and review the student’s education records maintained by the school. Schools are not required to provide copies of records unless, for reasons such as great distance, it is impossible for parents or eligible students to review the records. Schools may charge a fee for copies.
Parents or eligible students have the right to request that a school correct records which they believe to be inaccurate or misleading. If the school decides not to amend the record, the parent or eligible student then has the right to a formal hearing. After the hearing, if the school still decides not to amend the record, the parent or eligible student has the right to place a statement with the record setting forth his or her view about the contested information.
Generally, schools must have written permission from the parent or eligible student in order to release any information from a student’s education record. FERPA allows schools to disclose those records, without consent, to the following parties or under the following conditions (34 CFR § 99.31):
Additionally, schools may disclose, without consent, “directory” information such as a student’s name, address, telephone number, date and place of birth, honors and awards, and dates of attendance.

* Under the FERPA guidelines, specified officials to whom SCLI may disclose education records, such as grade reports, include Chapter Advisors, Grand Praetors, and the staff of the Private Business and Vocational Schools Division of Illinois Board of Higher Education. These education records are limited to courses and/or programs taken at SCLI, and do not include education records from the members’ undergraduate institutions, to which SCLI does not have access.
