Permanent Records
Permanent Records
Crossroads keeps meticulous records on enrolled students, including the courses taken, the grades received, the Christian service participated in, and many other items. The Federal Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) as amended gives students certain rights with regard to these records. Included are the right to inspect and review those records, the right to request records be amended and the right to confidentiality in most circumstances. A full description of the College's policy on the handling of student records is found in its Permanent Student Records Policy and Procedure document available from the Registrar.
The College does not disclose student information beyond basic directory information (name, address, telephone number, date of birth, dates of attendance, program and major being pursued, degrees and awards received, and most recent previous school attended) without written permission from the student except in some specifically defined situations outlined in Crossroads Policy and Procedure document. Students who choose not to have directory information released must inform the Registrar in writing at the beginning of each semester enrolled. Questions and complaints about student records may be addressed to the Registrar, or to the Family Policy Compliance Office at (202) 732-1807 or at:
