How to Change Your Chosen Name
Creating and embracing an inclusive environment is important to the mission of 天天吃瓜. We recognize that some students use a name other than their legal name to identify themselves. As such, 天天吃瓜 has established a process for students and faculty/staff to request a chosen name.
The individual鈥檚 chosen name will be used where ever possible in the course of University business. There are, however, places where the legal name will continue to be used for University business or legal needs. Those who use a chosen name should always be prepared to reference their legal name as well as provide their university identification when necessary. For students, chosen names will be used in on-campus communications, but will not be used in communications sent to your home address. For faculty/staff, Chosen names will be used in all communications that pull information from Flashline.
For students, this simple process is as follows: log into Flashline and in the left side tab, go to: Student > Resources > Requests and Authorizations > Chosen Name Request. Begin the process by logging into Flashline. You can also watch the embedded video below that walks you through the process.
For faculty and staff, the process is a little different. Please watch the embeded video below that will walk you through the process step by step.
If you have any questions please contact the Financial, Billing and Enrollment Center at 330-672-6000.
