We’re looking at charging fees at GFC for copies of non-transcript records such as immunizations or letters of acceptance, and I’m wondering what sort of fees y’all charge so we can stay in the same ballpark. There are two different situations where we typically end up making copies for students, and your thoughts/practices on either or both would be awesome!
-- We sometimes make copies for students to create an educational record (e.g., they bring in a high school diploma and we copy it for their application file);
-- We often make copies for students to release parts of an educational record (e.g., immunization requests).
Do you handle those two situations differently? And as a follow-up, how do you handle payment for copy requests that are mailed in or faxed? Student Accounts probably isn’t going to run a fiddy-cent card payment by phone.
Thanks for your collective insight. Hope this finds you well!
