Primary (Legal) Name vs Preferred/Chosen/Common Name

Your Primary or Legal name will continue to be the your legal name and will be used on official university documentation:
- Official and Unofficial Transcripts
- TowerCard (Front: Preferred Name, Back: Legal Name in smaller font)
- Any documentation involving financial aid or student accounts
