FERPA

What is the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and why can’t I see my dual credit student’s grades?

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. The law applies to all schools that receive funds under an applicable program of the U.S. Department of Education. FERPA calls for the protection of a student’s records once he/she turns 18 or enrolls in college. Dual credit students fall under this classification.


While North Texas Christian College does not currently receive funding from the U.S. Department of Education, we reserve the right to receive funding in the future.  Therefore, NTCC will  maintain the confidentiality of academic records and follow all federal and state laws governing the release of academic records.  In accordance with these laws, NTCC will not permit access to or the release of personally identifiable information contained in academic records to any party without the written consent of the student.


Students can contact NTCC administration for a FERPA waiver.


Financial Aid

Is financial aid available for NTCC dual credit students?

No, financial aid is not available for NTCC dual credit students.


Tuition Discounts/Scholarships

Are tuition discounts or scholarships available for NTCC dual credit students?

NTCC offers discounts for active military members and their dependents and for active UPCI missionaries and their dependents.  NTCC does not have an active scholarship program.


1098-T Forms

Does NTCC provide 1098-T forms to its students for income tax purposes?

NTCC is not accredited and cannot participate in any federal financial aid programs.  Therefore, we are not eligible to provide 1098T forms to our students.


NTCC Academic Calendar/Holidays

Due to the short length and fast pace of NTCC classes, North Texas Christian College follows its academic calendar and schedule of due dates with strict adherence. Fortunately, due to the virtual nature of NTCC classes, coursework can be completed by posted due dates regardless of travel  to attend events, conferences, vacations, etc.
