The CAPP Office delivers a holistic approach to supporting students in their academic journey at the College of Charleston. Our staff, faculty fellows and student mentors help navigate and overcome the academic obstacles, social challenges, and address any other identified concerns. We understand the importance of parental involvement as a key piece to overall success. For more information about ways you can support your student, see below.

Consent for release of confidential educational records

In order for staff in the Center for Academic Performance and Persistence to share confidential education records (e.g., grades, status of withdrawal petition, etc.) with a parent, guardian, or other third party, the student will need to present a signed FERPA form to our office granting us consent to do so, either present the form in-person or sent via e-mail from the students CofC e-mail account. A student's written consent may be obtained by using the consent form available for download here. 

If the student wishes to release his or her records from more than one office (e.g., the registrar’s office and the Office of Student Affairs) then a separate form need to be sent for each each office.

For more on FERPA and the release of student educational records, please visit the Office of the Registrar.
