Students, faculty, and staff may need to update their name on Brenau platforms due to events such as marriage or divorce.

Updating Student Information

Please note that we do not recommend changing your username/email unless it is absolutely necessary.   Doing so may cause issues with external systems that are not aware of our account changes.  We can update the display name of the account without any repercussions.

Important Note about TigerMail:
Your TigerMail email address is a temporary account intended solely for university business while you are a student. It will be disabled two terms after your last enrollment.

  • Do not use your Brenau TigerMail email address as a recovery email for personal accounts.
  • Avoid linking online purchases (e.g., Google or Apple Store accounts) to your student email account.

Updating Faculty & Staff Information

Faculty and staff must submit all name change requests to Human Resources. Once your personnel records are updated, Human Resources will submit a ticket to the Helpdesk to change your name on your email and other university systems.
