I wanted to request your feedback or any suggestions on the timing of our annual notification to students. We have several part-of-term and enrolled students who could best be described as registering on an almost rolling basis.
At the university, we have established a notice that is sent to every student as they register, which includes several consumer notices. The first one on the list is FERPA. It provides a brief introduction and a link to our university's FERPA page, which contains all the necessary information for students. Given that students register at various times, I wanted to confirm with you that this would satisfy our required annual notification.
We have drafted a more comprehensive email that we anticipate sending at the beginning of each long semester, as that is when most of our students begin. Would you encourage this, given that it won’t reach all students? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
