PROVIDE CONSENT TO OTHERS TO TALK WITH CHAMPLAIN?	AVAILABLE: MAY 1, 2021 DUE: JULY 1, 2021
Completing the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) waiver gives consent for staff to speak with parents or others regarding your student record. Without a signed FERPA waiver, we cannot assist parents or other designated parties once you arrive at campus and are attending classes.	Unless previously filed, complete the FERPA waiver online (or print and mail) by July 1, 2021. More details can be found on our website here: champlain.edu/FERPA.
ENABLE OTHERS TO ACCESS YOUR BILL ONLINE?	AVAILABLE: JUNE 1, 2021 DUE: AUGUST 1, 2021

Click the "Authorized Users" link to the right, under the "My Profile" section, and enter the email address of the person you wish to authorize to access your account.
