Forms, Applications, and Requests

Note

This is not the place to request the transcript copies themselves. Transcript requests for currently enrolled students are made through my.fiu.edu; for alumni and former students, requests are made through the OneStop website at onestop.fiu.edu.

Transcript Holds

If you are requesting a transcript and have been informed that you have an SCAI hold, please complete the Transcript Request Form to request a temporary lift of the hold.

Dean certifications and behavioral standing letters

Students and alumni who are applying to other academic institutions or for employment which requires a disclosure of prior conduct information are required to complete a Dean Certification or Letter of Behavioral Standing. Because conduct records are considered educational records protected by FERPA, Student Conduct and Academic Integrity (SCAI) does not share information regarding conduct records with anyone outside of FIU without a written consent. Thus, a release authorization from the student is mandatory. SCAI does not release prior conduct information over the phone as we are unable to verify the identity of the caller.

Please note that SCAI will process a completed request within 5-10 business days of receipt. For questions, contact the office at 305-348-3939. 

Requesting a Letter of Behavioral Standing

Student Conduct and Academic Integrity will provide a general notice to verify good standing or informing the recipient of the general facts of any incident(s), violation(s), and sanction(s) as applicable. To request a letter, the Disciplinary Records Request Form must be completed with the "I request that FIU SCAI write a letter detailing my disciplinary history at FIU" option selected.

FERPA Waiver

The Family Educational Right to Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), gives ownership and control of all educational records, which include student conduct records, to students.

In accordance with FERPA, it is the philosophy of Student Conduct and Academic Integrity that our FIU students are considered responsible adults who are allowed to determine who receives information about their conduct case and/or record. With this in mind, a parent, family member, or attorney does not automatically receive access to a student’s conduct case contents. Our staff will do our best to answer general questions regarding process, but will not release any specific information about the student or the case.

If a student wishes to provide access to their conduct case/records to someone, it is necessary to fill out a FERPA release form and submit it to our office. It can be completed using the link below. Upon receipt of the FERPA waiver, our staff will be happy to answer more specific and detailed questions from anyone listed on the waiver.
