Financial Aid Disclosures
Constitution Day
On September 17, 1787, delegates signed the final draft of the U.S. Constitution, establishing a new federal government. Two hundred years later, federal law designated September 17th as Constitution Day, establishing it as a National Day of Observance. Also known as Citizenship Day, September 17th additionally recognizes those who have become United States citizens by either birth or naturalization. As required by law, agencies and schools receiving federal funding throughout the fiscal year are required to host educational programs highlighting the importance of this date and its historical significance.
To celebrate Constitution Day, the Enrollment Management Division and Office of Student Financial Assistance invite all students, faculty, and staff to participate in events and/or activities that commemorate September 17th as both Constitution and Citizenship Day. Information regarding these events will be available through Quincy College Community Announcements and other college-related communications.

GLBA (Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act)
Quincy College communicates privately with members of the campus community through various means while respecting students’ rights to privacy. The college will not disclose nonpublic personal information (NPI) of its students without their consent, and they have the right to deny personal information being sent to non-affiliated third parties of the college.
By signing a FERPA form, students grant permission for their personal information, including enrollment and academic records, to be sent to third-party recipients. Students must specify which information is allowed to be disclosed and to whom. After completing and signing the form, students must submit it in person to the Registrar’s Office.
Quincy College is neither responsible for contacting students for subsequent permission, nor does it assume liability for honoring students’ instructions that certain information be withheld.
