Records of The Deceased

According to the AACRAO (American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers) 2012 FERPA Guide, FERPA rights and privacy rights of an individual expire with the individual’s death. Thereby making the records of deceased students an institutional matter. The Registrar will evaluate each request for release of a transcript or other education records of a deceased student on the individual merits of the request and reserves the right to deny the request in whole or to release only partial academic records.
