Authorization to Release Financial Information |
|
 |
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974 is designed to protect the privacy of a student's educational records. These confidential records include financial aid, scholarship and billing/account information, and will not be released without written consent from the student. By signing this form, the student authorizes University personnel to release confidential information to designated person(s). The entire FERPA policy is available here. |
Computer Purchase Policy |
|
|
The Higher Education Amendments of 1998 included a provision that allows an institution, on a case-by-case basis, to include in a student's cost of attendance (COA) the documented cost of a personal computer. Allowing inclusion of the cost is not based on any particular program of study or program requirement. This PDF will explain the policies and procedures that are in effect for Montana State University's undergraduate and graduate students. |
