Preferred Name FAQs
At Adelphi University, we understand that your name is an important part of your identity. That’s why we offer the option via My Student Profile to use a name you choose to be called that may differ from your legal name.
Adelphi University recognizes that some students prefer to use a name other than their legal name. As long as the use of a preferred name is not for misrepresentation, abuse, or avoiding accountability, students may request this option where possible.
You can easily set your preferred name, gender identity, and pronouns through eCampus:
- Log in to eCampus
- Select the My Profile service
- Update your preferred name, gender identity, and pronouns
We encourage students to set their preferred name before the start of the semester, but you can make updates at any time.
