Access to Student Records and Information Requests
A student has the right to access all information held about them in the university database. This includes transcripts, personal files, orders, contracts, and financial records. Timely receipt of information is essential for mobility, continuing studies abroad, or simply personal monitoring. Often, universities artificially delay issuing documents (e.g., transcripts or diplomas), especially if the student has financial arrears. However, debt is not always a legal ground for refusing to provide information.
This service helps students and graduates quickly and legally request necessary documentation from the university. Our lawyers ensure the removal of bureaucratic barriers.
What Does the Student Records Access Service Cover?
We offer:
- Preparation of Official Requests: Drafting a legally sound letter to request documents (diploma, transcript).
- Managing Debt Cases: Negotiating with the university so that financial arrears do not hinder obtaining an academic certificate (where legal).
- Retrieving Information from Archives: Restoring old data from reorganized or abolished universities.
- Administrative Complaint: Appealing university inaction to the Ministry of Education.
Common Real-World Scenarios
Problems:
- Diploma Withholding: The university refuses to give a graduate their diploma due to an unreturned library book.
- Transcript: A student urgently needs a transcript for mobility, but the Dean's office delays issuance.
