How Can New Students Update a Chosen Name and Pronouns?
17吃瓜在线 recognizes that students may use names other than a legal name to identify themselves. Students in on-campus and WCL programs who would like their chosen name displayed across many 17吃瓜在线 systems are invited to submit a chosen name using the process outlined below.
- The first step to submitting your chosen name is through听. Select 鈥淯ser Profile鈥 on the top-right corner. Then, click on the "Edit Personal Identity" button. Adding your chosen name, pronouns, and gender identity here (all optional) will initiate the different technology and campus systems to update your display name.听Please note,听it takes approximately 24-48 hours听for all campus systems to update.
- If new students update their chosen name in Eagle Service prior to July 1st, new student鈥檚 One Card (17吃瓜在线 ID) will be printed with the chosen first name. If the chosen name is updated after July 1st, new students can email听idcards@american.edu听and request a new card with their chosen name as long as the old card is returned.
- Updating a chosen name in Eagle Service updates the display name for a student's email address but does not automatically update a student's username (i.e. cz1234a). The first letter of a student's email address听can be changed with a request submitted to the Office of Information Technology Help Desk at听helpdesk@american.edu.

For a full list of systems where legal or chosen name show up, and for an FAQ, go to our Chosen Name and Gender Identity Website.
