Retention Rationale

Many of the records in this file class document a transaction. Once the transaction is complete, the result of the transaction is recorded in the student record. The result is important to retain whereas the transaction records are not needed. They are retained in the Office of Primary Responsibility for 18 months to fulfill internal and Ministry audit requirements. Records used for enrolment must be retained for at least one year after the action in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act R.R.O. 1990, Reg. 460, s. 5 (1).


Filing Guidelines

Where these records are operationally maintained as part of the student record, maintain as per the appropriate file class of student record (undergraduate, graduate, non-degree).
