Amendment of Education Records
Under FERPA, students have the right to request an amendment to education records. Should a student deem a portion of their education record to be inaccurate or misleading, the student may submit a request for amendment to Seminary Academic Services personnel. Requests must provide specific detail about which portions of the education record he or she believes to be inaccurate or misleading and what information he or she would like to be amended. Should the Seminary decide not to amend the education record as requested by the student, the student will be notified in writing and given an offer of a hearing should the student wish to pursue the amendment further. If after a hearing, the Seminary still decides not to amend the record as requested, the student will be offered the right to place a statement to be kept on file and disclosed if necessary with the original record.
