My Directory Information
What is directory information?
Directory information is the information the college is able to release regarding a student unless the student requests OTC not release it. Directory information includes:
- Student name
- Major field of study
- Part-time or full-time status
- Dates of attendance
- Matriculation and withdrawal dates
- Awards and honors
- Mailing address
- Academic classification (freshman/sophomore)
- Participation in recognized activities and photos
- Degrees and certificates
- Memberships in national honor societies
- Inclusion of an individual in a group photo
Implications of Denying Directory Information
If the student objects to the release of directory information, the student may deny the release of directory information by notifying the Registrar in writing. OTC will honor these requests for non-disclosure until the Registrar receives written notice from the student to remove the request for non-disclosure. Please note the implications of denying the release of directory information: If a perspective employer, loan company, family member, etc., inquire about a student, they will be informed that OTC has no record of that student. If the student calls or tries to obtain information without a picture ID he or she will be told OTC has no recorded of him or her.
