The Federal Regulation, Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), applicable to educational institutions, requires institutions to adopt policies and procedures:

1. Granting students access to their individual educational records
2. Establishing procedures for students to challenge records believed to be inaccurate
3. Preventing the release of educational records, except directory information, to third parties without written consent from the student
