Overview: Release of Information requests are required for any documentation that results in the EAC sharing student’s personal educational information with a third party. We are unable to fulfill any of the following requests without an accompanying Release of Information form.

Institutional Verification

An institutional verification may be required by the state (other than Utah) that a student may be seeking teacher licensure. To be able to process an institutional verification, the graduate must submit the following forms:

  1. A State Institutional Verification Form from the state in which you are applying for licensure. Complete only the applicant's information. Do not fill in any information designated to be filled in by university personnel.
  2. Release of Information Form. In order for Brigham Young University to release information regarding your institutional verification, you must fill out and sign a Release of Information Form. Please include it as a cover letter when you send us your State Institutional Verification Form.
