Collection and Use of Personal Information
To meet our obligations under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), and to process your application, review and make a decision about your admissibility and provide undergraduate, graduate, and alumni services to you, you will be asked to provide your personal information to Marquette University (“MU”). Personal information is data that can be used to identify a single person. Personal information MU collects includes: name, date of birth, address, social security number, email, phone number, past school records, test results, financial information, including information you have submitted through FAFSA and any additional information necessary to establish and verify your eligibility for Federal student aid, and emergency contact information.
Your personal information will be collected, processed, transmitted and retained when MU processes your application. If you are admitted, your personal information will be used to provide ongoing undergraduate, graduate and alumni services to you. For these purposes, MU may share your personal information with all relevant departments at the university.
As an accredited university that receives federal funds, MU may also share your personal information with agencies and organizations outside the university as necessary to fulfill MU’s legal and regulatory obligations.
All personal data and information processed and retained will be handled in accordance with university policies and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and the principles of fairness, lawfulness, transparency and accuracy. MU will not sell your personal information. If MU retains any personal data about you that is inaccurate, you have the right to have MU correct that information. If you do not attend MU, you may request that MU delete your personal information. To make such a request, please email dataprivacy@marquette.edu
MU may collect and process personal information that may be sensitive in nature. Sensitive data is defined by global data privacy laws as data concerning racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, genetics or biometric health, sexual orientation, gender identity, and criminal records.
For questions regarding this form, MU’s data processing practices and policies, or data security, please contact MU’s Data Protection Officer at dataprivacy@marquette.edu.
By signing this signature page, you agree to MU’s use of your personal information.
