Students are considered adults as soon as they submit their SIR (Statement of Intent to Register), regardless of their age. At UC Santa Barbara, students are regarded as capable of managing their own records and determining who can access information about them. Parents are not able to view private information without written authorization from the student. Private information includes, but is not limited to: transcripts, exam scores, physical and mental health records, disciplinary actions, financial aid, and advising records.
