Starting in 2027, Utah's State Board of Education and Board of Higher Education must create a formal system for sharing academic records of 7th through 12th grade students with colleges, universities, and technical schools to support programs like concurrent enrollment, scholarships, financial aid, and admissions. School districts must provide the necessary student data and notify parents about what is collected, how it is used, and their right to opt out of the data sharing. Higher education employees with access to this data must complete privacy and data protection training at least every two years, and all sharing must comply with federal and state student privacy laws.
