Updating records

Students

Use MyUI to update your residing address, phone number, email routing address, and other information. Directory changes made through MyUI are recorded overnight Monday-Friday, and should appear in the university's online directory the following business day.

If you prefer that your home address and phone number not appear in the online directory, select the appropriate restriction option in MyUI.

If you're changing your name, complete a change of name form and submit it with the required documentation. The UI Service Center can help with questions about updating student records at registrar@uiowa.edu or 319-384-4300.

Student employees can change their office listings (including campus address, campus phone, home address, and more) via the Employee Self-Service site. Make sure to also update your personal information on MyUI.

Use MyChart to update your name, residing address, phone number, email and other information. 

Additional forms (including: allergy forms, ADHD forms, release of information, etc.) can be found via the Student Health website. Student Health can help with questions about updating student medical records at student-health@uiowa.edu or 319-335-8370

Use Employee Self-Service to update your name, address, phone number, email routing address, and other information. Click the "Personal" tab at the top of the page, then select "Name/Address/Phone Change" in the "Name, Address & Hawk Alert" section.

You can restrict your home address and phone number to keep this info from appearing in the university's online directory.

Changes should appear in the online directory within 24 hours.
