What names should I share? ›
What names should I share? If you provide a preferred first name, we will use it in future communications. Keep in mind that these communications could include messages that are sent to or viewed by relatives and recommenders. If you are not comfortable having some people know your preferred first name, we recommend adding something you do want people to see or leaving this blank.
Prior or alternate last names are only used to help identify documents that may be sent to SUNY Oswego under a different name and are not used in any communication.
