    Student Data Practices Policy

    Policy Statement

    Saint Paul College—A Community & Technical College complies with federal and state laws that protect the privacy of student records, including the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), 20 U.S.C. §1232g, 34 CFR 99; and the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act (MGDPA) Minn. Stat. Ch 13 Minn Rules Ch 1205; and other applicable laws and regulations concerning the handling of education records. Students enrolled in the college are required to supply information necessary for services to be rendered. Although students are not legally required to provide the requested data, all requested information is essential to college processes and services. Refusing to supply requested information may result in the denial of admission to a program, registration or other services.

    The College gives assurance that student information will be safeguarded against improper disclosure as indicated in this policy. To implement the state and federal law, the College has established a policy that affords students certain rights with respect to their educational records.

    Definitions:

    Student: A student is an individual who has either applied for enrollment, who is currently enrolled, or has been formerly enrolled at Saint Paul College. A student is an individual receiving educational services by any method. All students have the same rights regarding their educational data.

Educational data includes, but are not limited to admissions materials, financial aid records, transcripts, class lists, class schedules, graded exams or papers, records of disciplinary procedures, work student records and much more. Certain information is exempted from the definition of “educational data” including:

    2. Law enforcement unit records-not shared with school officials and maintained for law enforcement purpose
    3. Medical and psychological treatment records that are maintained solely by the treating professional for treatment purposes
    4. Records that only contain information about a student after that individual is no longer a student at that institution (alumni data)

A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review educational data in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility.

    Student Rights Under FERPA and MGDPA

The student should appeal to the Registrar and clearly identify the part of the record they want changed as well as why the record is inaccurate or misleading. Note: They right to challenge a grade does not apply under this policy unless the grade assigned was allegedly inaccurately recorded. Students will be notified of their FERPA and MGPDA rights through publications of the policy on the college website and in the Catalog
    4. A student has the right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by Saint Paul College to comply with the requirements of FERPA. Students desiring to file a complaint should address the complaint to:Family Policy Compliance Office
