If you need to change your name (marriage, divorce, etc.) throughout the University systems, you will need to follow the "Name Changes" instructions on the Human Resources web page at (http://www.fis.ncsu.edu/hr/benefits/life_events/name_change.asp). Once you have ensured that your name has been changed in the HR/Payroll System, you can proceed with the next step.

•  Submit an email to help@ncsu.edu (Information Technology Department - Help Desk). In the email, you can request that both your name (Example:Minnie F Mouse) and Unity ID (Example: mfmouse) be changed or you can keep your Unity ID and just change your name associated with your Unity ID.

When sending the email to the Help Desk please include the following information:

•  Old name

•  New name (as it appears on yor Social Security Administration Card)

•  Your Department

•  Employee id

•  Email address

•  Unity ID

•  Campus or local telephone number

Information Technology will made the requested changes to your Unity name and/or userid and then coordinate to have your HR, Financial name and/or login ids changed.

Note: Please note that your Sybase and Mainframe login ids will not be changed until an ASAP request has been submitted to change your Sybase or Mainframe security access.

•  If you have any additional security access such as a GroupWise account access, you should mention this to the help desk. If you have any additional security access to departmental networks and applications, you should contact your technical support person or LAN administrator.
