How do I cancel my enrollment at UConn?

How can my parent/guardian get access to my grades or other student records?

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) prohibits universities from talking about students’ records with anyone but that student. That means we can’t talk about your financial aid records, your housing records, your transcripts and all other records that have your name on it without your permission. The process by which students grant permission for university staff to discuss certain aspects of their educational record with the people they identify is called the Online FERPA Privacy Waiver. It is designed to make it easier for you to tell us whom we can speak to, if anyone. You can find more information about FERPA and the Online FERPA Waiver on the Registrar's FERPA page.

How can parents participate in the UConn experience?

Parents and guardians of new University undergraduate students are automatically enrolled in the UConn Parents Association, a dynamic group of parents who are dedicated to the success of students and the advancement of the University. There is no fee to join. The Association's newsletter, Parent Talk, is mailed three times a year to the parents of UConn students. In addition, the Parents Association website has all kinds of resource information.
