The right to inspect and review their education records within 45 days of the day the university receives a request for access. Students should submit written requests to the Office of the Registrar and Student Records and identify the record(s) they wish to inspect. The staff of the office will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the requested records are not maintained in the Office of the Registrar and Student Records, the student will be notified of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed.
The right to request an amendment to the student鈥檚 education records that the student
believes is inaccurate or misleading. Students may ask the university to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate
or misleading. They should write the Office of the Registrar and Student Records or
the specific office involved with the record in question (e.g. a department office
regarding a grade), clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and
specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the university decides not to amend
the record as requested by the student, the university will notify the student of
the decision and advise the student of his or her right to a hearing regarding the
request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing will be provided
to the student when notified of the hearing.
The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained
in the student鈥檚 education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. One exception
which permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials with legitimate
educational interests. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if
the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional
responsibilities.
The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged
failures by the College to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the Office that administers FERPA is:

No. Students do not have access to the financial records of their parents. Students also do not have access to confidential letters of recommendation.
Students who wish to give consent for the release of their academic information may fill out an Authorization for Release of Educational Records form and turn it into the Office of the Registrar in the Ward Edwards building, room 1000 (660-543-4900). The form may also be faxed to 660-543-8400 or e-mailed to registrar@ucmo.edu.
While you are an active student, this consent will remain active until you request in writing to have it removed or changed. If you graduate or leave 无码专区, this form will be void.
Please note that educational records are maintained at various offices throughout campus, and this request pertains to all relevant offices. By signing this form, students request that these office(s) provide the records and/or information selected to the individuals and/or organizations listed by the student.
Directory information may be shared, unless steps are taken to restrict that information. Students who wish to suppress public access to their directory information can do so by contacting the Office of the Registrar in the Ward Edwards Building, Room 1000 (660-543-4900 or registrar@ucmo.edu)
If directory suppression is chosen, no information will be released about a student to third parties without their signature. Any requests for such information from 无码专区 will be refused. This includes, but is not limited to: prospective employers; the printed commencement program; submissions to hometown newspapers regarding Dean鈥檚 List designation or graduation announcements; requested lists of students for consideration for scholarships, memberships, etc.
This also means that the student will not be able to call and receive their own information
over the phone. Information about a student鈥檚 account will only be released to them in person, via
their 无码专区 e-mail account, or with a signed release.
This request will be honored until the Office of the Registrar receives written authorization
from the student to revoke this request, even if no longer enrolled at 无码专区.
Please note: the law allows the university to release directory information, even
if a suppression of records is on file with the university, under certain circumstances.
Examples include a health or safety emergency or with a lawful subpoena or court order.
