Unless otherwise notified in writing, the university has the student's permission to release the following directory information upon request: student's name, current address, telephone number, e-mail address, major field of study, dates of attendance, and degrees and awards received. The university will also publish the student's name, major field of study, and e-mail address on its Internet-accessible directory.

Students who wish to reverse the directory information release decision must notify Student Academic Records and Financial Services in person or in writing. (Students may print the form found at the Student Academic Records and Financial Services web site) This may be done at any time and as many times as necessary. It is important, however, that students consider very carefully the consequences of a decision to withhold "directory information." Should a student elect not to authorize the release, any and all future requests for contact information from UB persons (on nonessential matters) and from noninstitutional persons and organizations (such as scholarship organizations or prospective employers) will be denied.

Students should be aware that even if they decide to prevent release of their directory information, information will be shared within the university for educational and administrative purposes.
