Student Records
Student grades are recorded, stored, and secured with the Lincoln Memorial University Registrar. All other student records will be maintained in the Office of Admissions and Student Services. The privacy of student records is noted under the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), 1974, as amended. Requests from students to have their records released must be made in writing. Verification of enrollment will only be made for educational reasons. For instance, verifications will not be made to employers, landlords, or family members. In these cases, the students should use letters of acceptance, transcripts, or receipts of payment. LMU- DCOM students wishing to review their records must call the Office Admissions and Student Services and make an appointment with the Dean of Students or the Director of Admissions.
