Allopathic Medicine Student Handbook 2024-2025

Nova Southeastern University Student Handbook 9 • The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. One exception that permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the university in an administrative, supervisory, academic, research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom the university has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, collection agent, loan servicing agent, or the National Student Clearinghouse); a person serving on the board of trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official(s) in performing their tasks. School officials have a legitimate education interest if the school officials need to review an education record in order to fulfill their professional responsibility. Upon request, the university may disclose educational records, without consent, to officials of another school in which a student seeks or intends to enroll or is already enrolled, so long as the disclosure is for purposes related to the student’s enrollment and transfer. • The right to file a complaint with the Family Policy Compliance Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue SW, Washington, D.C., 20202-4605, concerning alleged failures by Nova Southeastern University to comply with the requirements of FERPA. • The right to be notified of students’ rights under FERPA annually. The Office of the University Registrar sends a FERPA notification via email to all students each fall. Nova Southeastern University hereby designates the following student information as public or directory information; such information may be disclosed by the institution for any purpose, at its discretion: • student name • local and home address • telephone numbers • email addresses • photo ID • major field of study • participation in sports • place of birth • dates of attendance • degrees, honors, and awards received • enrollment status • year in school • anticipated graduation date • photographs and video recordings taken in public places
