STUDENT RECORDS Weber State College Records Office creates, maintains, and handles all student records according to established practices recommended by the American Association of Admissions and Records Officers and according to the provisions of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 and all subsequent amendments to this act and the Uniform Practices Act of the State of Utah. These Acts, with which the institution intends to comply fully, were designated to protect the privacy of education records, to establish the right of students to inspect and review their education records, and to provide guidelines for the correction of inaccurate or misleading data through informal and formal hearings. Students have the right to file complaints with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act Office (FERPA) concerning alleged failures by the institution to comply with the Act. Local policy explains in detail the procedures to be used by the institution for compliance with the provisions of the Act. Copies of the policy can be found in the Records Office. Questions concerning the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act may be referred to the Director of Records. Classification of Students — Students with 44 or less quarter hours credit at the beginning of the quarter are classified as Freshmen; those with 45-89 quarter hours, as Sophomores; those with 90 to 134, as Juniors; and those with 135 and over, as Seniors. Students with a baccalaureate degree are classified as Graduates. Withdrawal from Individual Classes —A student may withdraw from individual classes only during the first six weeks of the quarter or of the duration of the class if the class begins or ends on a date different from the dates of the regular quarter. Individual classes may not be dropped the final four weeks of the quarter. If the student withdraws during the first three weeks of the quarter, no record of the class will appear on the academic record. If the student withdraws from a class after the end of the third week, a W (withdrawal) will be given for the class. 46 If a student stops attending a class without officially withdrawing, the student will receive a UW for the class. The complete policy and procedure for making changes to one's registration and the schedule of deadlines for making them are published in the class schedule each quarter. Withdrawal from School —Students are permitted to withdraw from school anytime during the quarter. A student withdrawing from school must obtain a Withdrawal from School form from the Registration Office and process it according to the instructions, which include clearance approval from the Dean of Student Affairs, Financial Aids, the Library and Campus Police. The student record will reflect the statement—"Withdrawn from School" and the date. Refund of tuition and fees will be based on the refund policy of the institution.

Non-Resident Classification — A student classified as a non-resident of the State of Utah is required to pay a non-resident fee. Any non-resident student who has reason to believe they can qualify for resident status should file a petition with the Registrar before registering. Petition forms are available in the Office of the Registrar. Each petition will be considered in accordance with the following provisions of Title 53-34-22 of the Utah Code Annotated (Supp. 1963). The meaning of the word "resident" for the purpose of this act shall be determined by reference to the general law of the subject of domicile, except that the following rules shall be observed: 1. No person can acquire a domicile by living in the State of Utah when such person lives in Utah for the purpose of attending or enabling a minor child to attend an institution of higher education. 2. Students whose family residence is not in Utah cannot acquire domicile unless they have lived in the state for one year prior to registration in a post-high school educational institution. 3. A student whose family moves to Utah with the intent of taking up permanent residence shall be immediately eligible to register as a Utah resident student. 4. Students shall not lose their domicile for educational purposes by the removal of their parents or guardian from the state during the continuous period of their higher education. 5. The domicile of a minor shall be that of their father; in the event of the death of their father, that of their mother; and in the event of death of both parents, that of the last deceased parent unless a guardian has been appointed. Letters of guardianship are not conclusive for purposes of determining domicile within the meaning of this act. In the event of a divorce or separation, the domicile of the minor shall be that of the person to whom custody has been awarded, or that of the mother, if no award has been made. 47 r*— Records Registrar ComnnsHp A ^frtjerdepL4 HPTOgrams ! i ! i i Allied neann "^Sciences Arts*.
