UNCG communicates to students via email, telephone and regular mail. It is the student's responsibility to provide UNCG with correct and current contact information. Through UNCGenie you can update your permanent and local mailing addresses, phone numbers and preferred email addresses. Note: Even though you set a preferred email address that may be outside of UNCG you still must either read or forward your UNCG provided email.
Also in case of an emergency it is critical that UNCG has information about the person(s) you want contacted. Students can update this information via UNCGenie as well. You may enter multiple people in the order in which they should be notified.
If you have a legal name change you can change your records with UNCG by going to the University Registrar's Office in 180 Mossman Building and completing a name change form (not available via the Web). If you also work for UNCG you must bring your new Social Security Card to the Payroll Office in 270 Mossman Building. If you legally change your name you can also change your UNCG computer account username.
By default public contact information for currently enrolled students appears in the Web Campus Directory, and for students who are enrolled in a Fall Semester, a printed Campus Directory. If you do not wish for your information to be printed in these directories you must file an "Information Suppression Request" with the University Registrar's Office.
