“This is federal law....not specific to a college.”

Even if the kid is still a MINOR?

When I went to college, I can’t imagine not showing off my grades.

When did this become a federal law?

I don’t remember this being an issue when I was in college .... I’m in my 50’s .... .

As someone else suggested, no password, no money from us for college.

When your kid is eighteen and the government decides it is somewhat of an adult, when it comes to things that get between the parents and the kid, and not an adult when it comes to things that are a nuscicne to the government like alcohol consumption.

If your child is under 18, you receive the grades.

Once your child is 18, they get the grades. I have two kids who’ve gone through and they (the kids, not the school) shared their grades. It was never a big deal in our family.

However, I do think it is a stupid principle when the parents are paying the tuition.
