The University Registrar’s Office (URO) has created a form for advisors to complete to increase maximum credit hours for their students. The link is on the University Registrar’s Office home page under “Faculty Forms” titled “Maximum Credit Hours Increase Form.” Once the form is completed it will take around 24-48 hours to process.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) is a federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. When a student turns 18 years old or enters a postsecondary institution at any age, all rights afforded to a parent under FERPA transfer to the student. CASA advisors are therefore prohibited from sharing specific information about a student to any third party (including parents) unless the student signs a waiver form specific to our office. We are happy to answer general questions to all regarding rules and procedures at UNCG.
Students may consent to disclose their education records by signing a waiver.
