Access my student's financial and academic records / Student Information For Families

Problem

• How do I access my student's financial (billing) and academic records?
• My student uses two-factor authentication through Duo. Do I have to enroll in Duo, too?

Resolution

• The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) protects the privacy of your student's financial and academic records. FERPA and other federal laws prevent Miami from releasing student information to parents or any other individuals unless authorized by the student
  • Visit Miami University's General Counsel site to learn more about FERPA
     
• Do not use your student's Miami credentials (UniqueID and MUnet password) to log in to the University system
   
• You must have a Parent/Family account and your student's permission to access any student record
  • Your student can create your Parent/Family account and share access to any or all records by following these KB instructions
  • Simply log in to the Student Information for Families Portal with the email address (which is your UniqueID) your student used to create your account and the password you created when you received your confirmation email
  • Parents of current Miami University students are not required to enroll in Duo and can continue to access their Parent/Family account 
     
• If you have questions or concerns, contact the Miami University Parents' Office by email at ParentsOffice@MiamiOH.edu or by phone at 513-529-3436 during business hours
