Upon graduation or withdrawal from the University, student records are maintained by Student Affairs offices for a period of seven years, after which time they are expunged. Official records of students who are suspended or expelled from the University are maintained indefinitely. Records may be retained for internal purposes solely when subject to litigation or complaints to external authorities.
Student records will not be released outside the University absent a written release from the student, otherwise required by law, or in accordance with the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). However, students should be aware that they may be required to sign a waiver when applying to graduate or professional schools or in the course of any employment or governmental background check.
