FERPA ANNUAL NOTIFICATION
 
Access to student records is regulated by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (20 U. S. C. 1233), FERPA, designed to protect the privacy of the student’s records. Methodist University complies fully with this act and categorizes the following as directory information to be released in the best interests of the student as determined by the University: name, address, telephone number, date and place of birth, parents’ names, major field of study, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, most recent previous educational institution attended, weight and height of members of athletic teams, dates of attendance at Methodist, and degrees and awards received. Under the terms of FERPA, students have the right to withhold disclosure of any or all directory information by filing, annually, nondisclosure requests with the Office of the Registrar. Methodist University assumes that the absence of such a request indicates student approval of disclosure.
 
Any student who is currently enrolled at Methodist University or who has been previously enrolled has the right to review and request the amendment and/or correction of all records pertaining to themselves maintained by the University. Students retain the right to file a complaint with the United States Department of Education alleging a failure of Methodist University to abide by the provisions of FERPA and the enabling regulations.
 
Students desiring to make changes to official records regarding name, social security number, and date of birth, must do so by completing the Methodist University data correction form that can be obtained in the Office of the Registrar. Address changes can be submitted through the myMU portal.
