Changing Your Name and Gender in the UW Student Database

Resource Repository > > Changing Your Name and Gender in the UW Student Database

As of April 2, 2018, a preferred name option within student databases and UW records is now available! All UW students and employees will have the option to include their preferred names on the Husky CardThis option also allows students and employees to indicate a preferred first and middle name that would be visible to individuals who access the student database/UW records (including student IDs, the UW directory, class rosters, grade pages, etc), but does not require a student to legally change their first and middle name.
