Student Local Address Policy

According to the State Authorization federal regulation (§ 600.9(c)(1)(i), § 600.9(c)(2)(ii-iii).), institutions must determine in which state a student is located while enrolled in a distance education course and make such determinations consistently and apply them to all students. 

All enrolled students must provide the University with their current local address through MyIUP. This information must be reviewed/updated each semester and within 10 days of a change of local address. Note: Student Local Address is defined as the physical location and address where a student is living while enrolled at the University and actively attending classes. 

Please refer to IUP’s Student Privacy and FERPA policy which governs how address information is shared. 

Rationale: This policy was developed in response to new federal regulations and to keep IUP in compliance with these regulations.
