The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) maintains confidentiality and affords students certain rights with respect to their education records.
ASU Mid-South informs students of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. This Act, which the College intends to comply with fully, has been designated to protect the privacy of educational records.

- Student’s name, address (local, home and electronic mail), and telephone number

- Date(s) of attendance
- Enrollment status (full-time, part-time)
