FERPA Q&A

Q: Will there be any training regarding the best way to contact students who have been suspended or on leave of absence and their U of M email is canceled? We can't use their personal email to share personal information. This could be challenging when we are trying to assist suspended or leave of absence students with coming back to school.

A: The first group of students impacted by the discontinuation of ‘email for life’ will be students earning a degree in spring 2023. Currently, there are no changes planned for suspended students or those that are on a leave of absence. As of now, you can still contact them through their U of M email address. As we learn more about the upcoming technology changes regarding ‘email for life,’ we will provide information on how to best communicate with students in a FERPA-compliant manner.
