Purchasing Department Reminder regarding Printing Procedures
With the announced closing of the Printing Center, the Purchasing Department wants to remind the campus of the purchasing procedures for having printing performed off campus.
All printing jobs, regardless of the size of the order, are required to be processed by the Purchasing Department. Departments are not permitted to order printing on their own.
Departments should submit a requisition or an email to the purchasing office with complete specifications. Purchasing will submit a formal bid or quote to the vendors (departments should not contact vendors) for prices, delivery dates and other pertinent information.
A group is working to identify solutions for helping UND departments meet future printing needs. Information will be sent to the campus as soon as solutions are identified.
If you have questions, please contact Margaret Myers at 777.3717.

Financial FERPA Privacy Release Form
The Financial FERPA (privacy release) form will be updated to an electronic form as of Friday, March 9, 2012. The link to the electronic FERPA Form will be on the Student Account Services website under Student Forms > Privacy Release Form FERPA. Students will sign in with their PeopleSoft USERID and password.
Once the form is submitted, it will appear in Image Now within approximately 30 minutes so that we may assist students over the phone or via email. This will eliminate the prior need for students to mail, fax, or hand-deliver paper forms, and will enable Student Account Services and Financial Aid to assist students with their account questions much more quickly and efficiently. Student Account Services is excited to offer this feature to our students as we continue to explore the benefits of Image Now!
