Explanation

According to FERPA, a school may disclose personally identifiable information (PII) from an eligible student's education records without consent if the disclosure meets one of the exceptions in 34 CFR ?99.. One of these exceptions is for disclosures to other schools to which a student seeks or intends to enroll, or is already enrolled if the disclosure is for purposes related to the student's enrollment or transfer (34 CFR ?99.31(a)(2)). This exception allows schools to disclose transcripts, recommendations, or other information that may facilitate the student's admission or enrollment at another school. However, the school must make a reasonable attempt to notify the student of the disclosure, unless the student initiated the disclosure, and must provide the student with a copy of the records that were disclosed upon request (34 CFR ?99.34(a)(1)).
