How can I change my name on my student record?
Your Award Certificates will be printed using your full legal name (including middle names) as recorded on the student record system at the time the results were ratified at the Assessment Board. You can check your name on MyHub under the ‘Personal Details’ section. If your name is incorrect please check below to find out if/how you can get this changed.
To update your name in time for it to be corrected for your graduation and award certificate, please contact AskBU before your Assessment Board has taken place with an item from the following list:
• Passport
• Birth certificate
• Statutory declaration
• Deed poll (change of name deed)
• Marriage certificate
• Civil partnership certificate
• Divorce decree absolute
Transgender Policy Name Change
We will need your current ID, for example a passport see the Student Names policy above for acceptable evidence and a statutory declaration relating to the name change. You will not need to supply a Gender Reassignment Certificate.
If you are attending Graduation in November please see the Graduation FAQs for name change deadline.
