Changes to Personal Information

Preferred Name Change

With the growing diversity of our campus, many students use names other than their given name for a variety of personal or cultural reasons. To better serve you, we have created the option to add a Preferred First Name to several of the University applications that you use.

You can submit the Preferred Name Change Form through Owl Express.  This online form is located under the Student Records tab.

  • In addition to systems where legal name is not required, the Preferred First Name will be added to the Class Roster, Student Advising Guide, and Degreeworks.
