Section 106-172-731. Access to education records.

The university shall provide each student access to his/her education records except as otherwise limited according to WAC 106-172-733.

The right of access shall include:

(1) The right to inspect and review the content of education records in the presence of appropriate university personnel.

(2) The right to obtain single copies of each record, at the expense of the eligible student but not to exceed the actual cost to the university of reproducing such copies.

(3) The right to a response from the university to reasonable requests for explanations and interpretations of those records.

(4) The right of an opportunity for a proceeding to challenge the content and accuracy of those records according to WAC 106-172-761.

(5)(a) Students wishing access under provisions of this policy to education records maintained by the university should address a request in writing to the person in charge of maintenance of that record. If copies are requested, copies may be supplied at no more than the cost of making the copy, including supplies and staff time.

(b) The individual responsible for maintenance of any record shall respond to written requests only, and provide copies as requested, within forty-five working days. The university registrar is not prohibited from providing a student with a copy of the student's academic transcript from CWU, but is prohibited from providing a student with a copy of the student's official academic transcripts from other institutions.

(6) The office of the vice-president for student affairs and enrollment management will maintain a file showing what education records are maintained by any department or entity of the university and the title and address of the official responsible for maintenance of each record.
