Financial Privacy

Authorization to Release Financial Information (FERPA) Form:
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is designed to protect the privacy of educaiton records and provide students with certain rights regarding their education records. These rights to review records primarily reside with the student once admitted to or enrolled in a higher education institution. In order to comply with FERPA, Monmouth College staff is restricted from providing certain information to anyone other than the student, regardless of who submits payments for the student's account. Any student who wishes to permit other individuals access to their Monmouth College financial records may do so by signing an Authorization to Release Information form and submitting it to the Business Office. Upon receipt of the signed authorization form, the Business Office may discuss student financial information with the designated individual(s).
