Privacy

The Family Educational Right and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law that protects information about students. The law gives students the right to:

• Inspect and review education records
• Seek the amendment of education records
• Consent to certain disclosures of education records
• Obtain a copy of the university’s FERPA policy
• File a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education

Further information about students privacy rights can be found at the Brandeis University’s Education Records Policy and the University Bulletin.
