The Office of the Registrar conducts an annual review of access to student records. In an effort to streamline this process, the Office of Academic Advising
has agreed to gather information from academic departments and residential colleges about who needs access to these records for the academic year. If your academic department or residential college did not complete and submit the Academic Advisor Listing Form to the Office of Academic Advising, all student records access via Edgar/WebApps was disabled.
Security Agreement
Before Edgar/WebApps access can be granted, Rice employees are required to complete a Rice University Administrative Systems Account Application and Security Agreement 
.
Please ensure that anyone for whom you are requesting access has completed a Rice University Administrative Systems Account Application and Security Agreement. If a Rice University Administrative Systems Account Application and Security Agreement must be submitted, the following sections should be completely filled out:
- Part 1: Applicant Information — should be completed by the person for whom you are requesting access.
- Part 2: Code of Responsibility for Security and Confidentiality of Records, Files and Databases — should be read, signed, and dated by the person for whom you are requesting access.
- Part 3: Approvals — should be signed and dated by the Department Chairperson, Program Director, Dean of Undergraduates, or College Master as appropriate.
After a Rice University Administrative Systems Account Application and Security Agreement 
is completed, please send it to the Office of the Registrar at MS-57. When the agreement has been processed, the appropriate Edgar/WebApps access to student records will be available.
