Q&A: Is there a law regulating universities demanding personal health information?
Is there a law regulating universities demanding personal health information?
I know HIPPA applies to health care industry and FERPA applies to families asking for info “from” schools, but is there a law about secondary schools demanding info. I’m in a PA and fighting my school.

I don’t know the specifics for PA, but every state has laws requiring proof of immunizations before students can enroll. Is that what you mean?
I doubt there is any law pertaining to this specifically for universities. Most of the time, the basic deal is: They can demand; you can refuse. But you may not be able to use their services if you refuse.
