STUDENT RELEASE OF INFORMATION FORM
Enrollment and participation in the Health Sciences Programs at Howard Community College (HCC) require that
students provide proof of general and specific health status, immunization records, CPR certification, criminal
background check, social security number, driver's license/photo identification card, academic records, urine/blood
tests for drug screening and any other information that may be required by the college or clinical facility policy or
legal mandate to establish students’ fitness to care for live patients in a clinical setting.
The Health Sciences Division is required to share this information with clinical facility partners who provide the
sites for the required clinical training portions of the courses. Pursuant to the Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act of 1 74, 20 U.S.C. 1231g (“FERPA”), the college may not release information without the written
consent of the student; subject to the exceptions specified under FERPA. You may obtain more information about
Student Rights and Responsibilities (FERPA) from your course catalog, student handbook, or college website
www.howardcc.edu/admissions/register/ferpa. The clinical facilities are required to maintain the confidentiality of
these records and may only use them to determine that a student meets the standards of the institution and thus does
not present a threat to their patients or staff.
Choosing to not provide permission for the release of this information will prohibit participation in HCC Health
Sciences Programs as it will result in a ban from the clinical facilities where students are required to complete the
clinical portion of training. Admission to and successful completion of the clinical training portions of Health
Sciences courses are required for program enrollment and completion.
