Emory University: Will the college call me if my student becomes sick?
DIRECT ANSWER
Not automatically for an ordinary illness. Student medical and education information is protected; Emory may share information when the student consents or when a health/safety exception permits disclosure.
Emory Student Health explains that student health information is protected and that postsecondary student records have privacy protections. A parent should not expect an automatic call for routine sickness. In a serious health or safety emergency, FERPA and applicable health-record rules can permit disclosure to appropriate parties, including parents, when necessary.
