Ohio Code § 1713.033

§ 1713.033.

Each institution or school with a certificate of authorization issued under this chapter

annually shall certify to the chancellor of higher education, on a date and in the

form and manner determined by the chancellor, a plan to preserve student records indefinitely

if the institution or school was to cease operations.  The plan shall include the designation and signed confirmation of an official custodian

of student records.  If the chancellor determines it necessary, the chancellor may require an institution

or school to produce an executed agreement with the designated custodian of student

records, paid in full, to ensure the institution's or school's plan can be implemented. The chancellor may consult with the higher learning commission, the state board of

career colleges and schools, and other appropriate entities to establish plans, processes,

and procedures for institutions and schools to provide indefinite access to student

records.
