The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), as amended, establishes requirements regarding the privacy of student records. FERPA governs:
- The release of student records maintained by the university
- Access to student records
When a student reaches the age of 18 OR is attending a postsecondary institution, regardless of age, FERPA rights transfer from the parent to the student. Parents of ASU students may not receive information from a student’s records unless the student creates a FERPA/Proxy Authorized User from his/her secure RamPort account.
Details that you may want for tax preparation are available through the online 1098-T Tax Notification.
Students must create a FERPA/Proxy Access for you to view the Tax Notification. Without this authorization, you will not be able to see the Tax Notification. Once your student gives you FERPA/Proxy Access, you will receive an email with further instructions. Visit the FERPA/Proxy Access web page for more details.
After the student has created your access, you may use the Proxy Login to view the Tax Notification.
