Veterans
Biola University is approved as a degree-granting institution for the attendance of veterans under Title 38, United States Code. This includes the programs covered in chapters 30, 31, 35 of Title 38, relating also to the education of disabled veterans and war orphans, and 1606 of Title 10. The Council for Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education has also authorized the University for the attendance of veterans and veterans' dependents.
Veterans or dependents of veterans who plan to enroll in the University are urged to contact the veteran's coordinator in the Registrar's Office well in advance of registration so that the necessary arrangements may be made with the Veterans Administration.
Family Education Rights and Privacy Act
The Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and provisions of the California Education Code set out requirements designed to govern the access to, and release of, educational records, to establish the right of students to inspect and review their records, and to provide guidelines for the correction of inaccurate or misleading data through informal and formal hearings. Students also have the right to file complaints with the FERPA Office (U.S. Dept. of Education) concerning alleged failures by Biola to comply with provisions of FERPA.
Biola University has adopted policies and procedures concerning implementation of FERPA on campus. Copies of the policy are available in the Registrar's Office. For more detailed information, please see our FERPA page.
