Will UT Austin automatically notify me if my student is sick, injured or involved in an emergency?
DIRECT ANSWER
No blanket automatic parent-notification rule applies. UT may release student-record information in an emergency when necessary to protect health or safety.
UT's institutional rules keep student records confidential while allowing emergency disclosure when information is necessary to protect the health or safety of the student or others. This permits disclosure in qualifying emergencies; it does not promise that every illness, injury or incident will result in automatic parent notification.
