This page will give some tips about how to fill out the FERPA release form on My Union.

  1. To access the form, go to the following link and log in: FERPA Release

This form is to allow selected parts of your (the student's) academic information to be shared with certain individuals you name.

Question 1: The Primary Name is the first individual's name that you wish to have access to your academic information. When filling out the name, it's a good idea to list the person's complete legal name.
