To change your name before you graduate, you’ll need to submit your deed poll and new IC to OneStop. Wait for the system (NTULearn and Outlook) to update to your new name, and apply for a new matriculation card. Collect your new matric card at OneStop. We do not have relevant information of whether you could change your legal gender (they should be able to reflect the update, and your legal gender isn’t reflected on your transcript anyway) You are not allowed to change your name in your academic transcript or university degree after graduation. You will be able to change your name in correspondence if you email the officer in charge of alumni in your school, but until your legal gender is updated you cannot update your honorific in physical correspondence (even if you’re employed with them). To unsubscribe from the HEY! alumni magazine, send your previous name and address to hey@ntu.edu.sg.

NUS has a new option for preferred name, which you can simply just change from myEdurec. The preferred name will update automatically in most major systems, like your Outlook or Canvas account. This however doesn’t update your legal name — and hence, the name that will be displayed on your academic transcript, official correspondence or degree. To do so, you’ll have to go to myEduRec, where there is a user guide. NUS requires that your name should be the same as your NRIC or passport. You are not allowed to change your name in your academic transcript or university degree after graduation.

Apply for a new student card via this link (to the SMU Oasis portal), collect your card and have the card encoded at the Security Command Center. You are not allowed to change your name in your academic transcript or university degree after graduation.
