FERPA Q&A

Question: I'm working with a student that was the victim of a crime. The student wants assurances that the other student involved in the crime is not going to be in her classes. As it turns out, that other student is no longer at the university. Can I tell her that?

Answer: Most likely, yes. Since enrollment status is directory information at the U of MN, we can state that the student is no longer enrolled. If the student has fully suppressed their information, we are unable to discuss current enrollment status and can only confirm that we do not have a record of the student in question.
