A Student’s Third party Authorization:

Information about you is held by numerous units across UBC including Enrolment Services, your Faculty, and Advisors with whom you have interacted. This information will only be released to third parties with your express consent. If you wish to give permission to a third party (e.g. parent, spouse, etc.) to access your information, please complete the Add Your New Contact section. By designating a third party, you are authorizing UBC to release specified information from your student record to that third party. Your designated third party will not be able to make changes to your record.
