Student Right To Know

What is the “Student Right-to-Know” Act?

Also known as the “Student Right-to-Know and Campus Security Act” (P.L, 101-542), which was passed by Congress November 9, 1990.  Title I, Section 103, requires institutions eligible for Title IV funding to calculate completion or graduation rates of certificate-or degree-seeking, full-time students entering that institution, and to disclose these rates to all students and prospective students.

These data are also required to be disclosed to parents, coaches, and potential student athletes when the institution offers athletically-related student aid.  The Graduation Rates component of IPEDS was developed specifically to help institutions respond to these requirements.
