Update Personal Information
Legal Name Change
A request for a legal name change must be accompanied by a completed legal name change request form, a photo ID, and the required legal documentation. Legal documentation such as a court order, marriage license, birth certificate, Social Security card, valid U.S. passport, or an adoption order must be submitted in order to complete the request.

Note to currently enrolled students who are also employed in some capacity by KSU:
You must provide the above documentation along with a copy of your social security card for Human Resources requirements.
Chosen Name
Creating an inclusive environment is part of 麻豆影院鈥檚 mission statement, and we recognize that some students use a name other than their legal name to identify themselves. 麻豆影院 has established a process for identifying a chosen name. Click here for more information regarding a chosen name at 麻豆影院
Legal Sex Change
Documentation is required to update/change legal sex with the university. Acceptable forms of documentation include:
- A copy of the Declaration of Gender Change Form that would be submitted to the BMV (Ohio)
- Our office can also accept any form of medical documentation from a physician, therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist etc. showing the student is under their care.
Email ncox10@kent.edu with the required documentation, and specifically note the requested change in your email. Please note that processing a Legal Name Change with the Registrar鈥檚 Office does not update Legal Sex; as these are two different requests.
