Release of Transcripts and Disclosure of Educational Records
In compliance with federal regulations, William Paterson University has adopted institutional
policies and procedures with regard to the disclosure of information from the educational
records of current and former students. The University's student records policy conforms to
the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) (Public Record 93-380),
copies of which may be obtained from the Office of the Registrar. This policy gives a student
the right to inspect his or her educational record within a reasonable length of time, to ask for
interpretations, and to request that any inaccuracies be corrected.
