UWG Confidentiality

UWG Financial Aid Department Confidentiality Policies: Effective immediately, two new Confidentiality Policies have been implemented for our office in order to maintain the confidentiality and privacy of our students' files. The policies are as follows:

Walk-in Customer Service Confidentiality Policy: Students who wish to know specific information (i.e., types of awards and/or dollar amounts, etc.) about their financial aid records are required to provide the Financial Aid Department Staff with their UWG ID Card. Information concerning a student's file will not be released to a parent, spouse or any other relative without the expressed or written consent of the student. You may, however, obtain specific information regarding your financial aid file by visiting BANWEB. We will accept other photo identification for new students who are in the process of applying to UWG and have not received their ID Card.

Telephone Customer Service Confidentiality Policy: Only general information (i.e., forms required to complete your financial aid file, whether your file is complete or not) will be released via the telephone. Information concerning a student's file will not be released to a parent, spouse or any other relative without the express or written consent of the student. The student, however, may obtain specific information regarding their financial file by visiting BANWEB.
