The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), as amended, is a federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. In accordance with regulations issued under FERPA, the College of Charleston provides an annual notification to our enrolled students of their rights under FERPA; as well as an explanation of the exceptions under FERPA that allow the College to disclose information from the student’s education record without consent.
This notification is posted at the following link on the website of the Office of the Registrar: http://registrar.cofc.edu/pdf/FERPA-annual-notification-final-june-2016.pdf
For additional information or for questions concerning the College’s FERPA policy and procedures, please visit http://registrar.cofc.edu/ferpa/index.php or contact the Office of the Registrar directly (email: registrar@cofc.edu or physical address: 160 Calhoun Street, Lightsey Center, Room 281).

We are pleased to announce a new Self-Service Banner (SSB) tool for students called Proxy Access Management that will provide current College of Charleston students with the ability to share certain academic and financial aid information with a parent or guardian online. As always, you will control access rights, but with Proxy Access Management you can modify access rights at any time, set valid date ranges on the access, and view a log of recent activity.
When setting up proxy access, you may select any or all of the following information items to share with a proxy:
- Financial Aid information (Aid Status, Academic Progress, Award History)
- Personal Information (Addresses, E-mail, Emergency Contacts)
- Registration Information (Schedule)
- Student Records Information (Midterm Grades, Final Grades, Unofficial Transcript, Holds)
NOTE: Proxy access does not authorize College of Charleston personnel to communicate with authorized proxies. To authorize this type of communication, students must complete a FERPA Consent Form. For more information on FERPA, please visit http://registrar.cofc.edu/ferpa/index.php.
The Office of the Registrar website http://registrar.cofc.edu/proxy-access-management/index.php contains additional information on Proxy Access Management including:
Collaborators on this project included the Office of the Registrar, Financial Aid, New Student Programs, Undergraduate Academic Services, Academic Experience, Academic Advising & Planning Center, and Information Technology.
Best,
