Changes to Personal Information

Address/Telephone Changes

You may update your address or telephone information on OASIS by accessing the Student Records Main Menu and selecting Change Address Information. Please don’t forget to keep your address (both Local and Permanent) as well as your Emergency Contact information current.

You may also update your address information by completing the Change of Address form and mailing or faxing it to our office. Or you may simply send us a letter with your change of address information. Please be sure to include your full name, the last four digits of your Social Security Number and indicate whether your new address replaces your Current, Permanent, or Emergency Contact. We are unable to accept a change of address via email because we need your signature.
