Preferred Name Policy

Preferred Name Policy

A preferred name is a first name that you may choose to be called that is different from your legal name. MVCC recognizes that many students, faculty, and staff prefer to use a name other than their legal name to identify themselves. As long as the use of this preferred name is not for the purpose of misrepresentation, the College acknowledges that a preferred name can be used where possible in the course of college business and education.
