FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) provides students certain rights of access, privacy, and protection of education records. As an academic program offered by Brown University, pre-college students are protected in this policy. For that reason, the University cannot share with anyone other than the pre-college student information about the student's final status in their pre-college course(s), specifically whether they successfully completed the course/program, the Course Performance Report written by the course's instructor, or the Certificate of Completion that is mailed to students upon successful completion. Parents/guardians who have questions about these aspects of their students' experience in the pre-college programs may either review the content of the student's portal with the student or the student will need to email the pre-college programs granting their parent/guardian to speak with pre-college staff about these matters.
