GRADE REPORTING POLICY

        In accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (Buckley Amendment), a final grade report addressed to the student is sent to the home address at the close of each semester.  Final grades are sent to the parents of students who complete a "grade release" form in the Office of Academic Records and Summer School.  

        Additionally, at mid-semester a report for all freshmen and those upper-class students who have less than satisfactory grades ("D" and "F") is sent to the student's local/campus address.  Mid-term grades are also sent to the parents of students who complete a "grade release" form.  

        Students with outstanding financial obligations (examples:  library fines, bookstore balances) will not have official transcripts released by the University.
