All DMRT student records are permanent, and handled securely and confidentially. UMB official transcripts are available through the UMB Office of the Registrar. 

The DMRT maintains the following documents in student records for a minimum of ten years:

Student health records are confidentially maintained at the UMB Student Health.  The Program Director receives documentation from Student Health verifying student compliance with immunization records, Hepatitis series, and negative tuberculosis screen.

The records of currently enrolled students are securely maintained in a locked file in the DMRT Office of Student Affairs.  Alumni records are stored in file cabinets in a locked storage room.  In compliance with federal law [Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)] students may request access to their records from the Program Director.
