PRIVACY

The Federal Family Educational Rights And Privacy Act of 1974 (Public Law 93-380) gives each student the right to know the following: what type of student records are maintained; who has access to these records and for what purpose; what are the procedures to access and review one’s own records; how to amend any record which is inaccurate or misleading; and the cost of reproducing copies of records from one’s own file.

At NPC, your academic records, including your course grades and assignment and exam results, are maintained indefinitely. The assignments and exams themselves may be maintained in our database and available to active students and alumni, but NPC makes no warranty as to their maintenance or the student’s ability to retrieve them. Students wishing to save their own assignments or exams are strongly encouraged to save them on their own computers and to please not rely on the NPC servers to maintain original copies of their assignment and exam submissions.

NPC staff (including student mentors) and NPC faculty have access to your academic records for any school-related purpose. Any student may access his or her academic records at any time by logging in to his or her NPC student account. Students who were once enrolled but are now de-activated will still maintain access to https://nationalparalegal.edu (800) 371-6105 153 their own academic records (i.e., courses taken and course grades) and their tuition and payment ledger.
