Student Name Changes
Current and former students may have need to change the name associated with their academic records. Typical reasons for a name change include marriage, divorce, naturalization, use of a variation of the name, etc.
If you need to have your name changed, we must change all of your records to reflect the new name. Then, your UB financial records, your future academic transcripts, and your future diploma will carry only that new name.
You will need to complete a Name Change Form (PDF), provide documentation showing your new name, and then mail the information to the address on the form.
If you are able to visit the Student Response Center (232 Capen), we recommend that you bring your documentation to us and complete the request in person. The change can be made more quickly and any questions we might have can be answered.
