DIRECTORY INFORMATION: The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal regulation which governs how educational institutions collect and disseminate student records data. University policy 3342-5-09 defines the operational procedures and regulations that govern student record data at Kent State University, including the definition of "directory information", which is information which "may be disclosed on an unlimited basis by university personnel in response to oral or written requests."

Other student record information is not released to parties outside the university without the written consent of the student.

Please restrict the publication and release of Directory Information from my Kent State University educational record.

By completing and returning this request to the Office of the University Registrar, PO Box 5190, Kent State University, Kent.
