Student Privacy - FERPA

If you are 18 or have attended at least one class at Montgomery College, your education records are protected by the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), regardless of who is paying the tuition bill. FERPA is a federal law that limits access to student education records, including grades and class schedules.

Now that you’re at college, you are required to take care of registration, payment arrangements, etc. on your own; we recommend that you also maintain open communication with your parents about your Montgomery College experience.

You may not request non-disclosure to a particular person or group of persons.
