Change of Name

If your name changes (e.g. as a result of a marriage, divorce or change of gender) your University record must be updated to reflect this change.

You can request this change via the MyData tab on Student Records Online

We require a legal document confirming your new name, such as your birth/marriage/divorce certificate, passport, driving licence, deed poll document, etc. We will also need to see this documentation if you believe your name was recorded incorrectly on admission, to confirm local custom with respect to the order of your names, etc. You can either:

  • call into student services in Senate House with your documentation;
  • email Student Records with a scanned copy of your documentation;
  • fax Student Records a copy of your documentation to +44 (0)24 7652 4170; or
  • post a copy to Student Records, University House, University of Warwick, Coventry, CV4 8UW, United Kingdom.

You can set your 'preferred' name your self via Student Records Online.

Names held for students who have already graduated cannot be changed.
