My name is wrong on my parchment (degree). How do I get it changed? 🔹 There’s a mistake on my degree — how do I fix it? 🔹 My name changed — can I update my parchment? 🔹 What if my degree has the wrong name?

If there’s an error on your parchment:

  • 🛠️ If the Registrar’s Office made the mistake, return the parchment and we’ll issue a corrected one at no cost.
  • 🔁 If your name has changed, you can request a new parchment using the Parchment Re-Issue Form.

📌 Note: Parchments are official legal documents, and thus reflect your legal name on file with Acadia. For more information on name changes see here
