Address and Name Change Policies-Students

Residence and Location Policy

It is the policy of Morningside College to require students to report residence/permanent address and location/temporary address during the start of the first term of enrollment. Students must inform Morningside College of address changes as they occur while enrolled.

“Residence” is the student’s permanent address (street address, city, state, zip code). This may be the address of the student’s parent/guardian if the student is considered “dependent.”  Adult students who are no longer financially dependent on their parent/guardian may have the same address for residence and location. 

“Location” is the physical address (street address, city, state, zip code) where the student is living while receiving the instruction and may not refer to the student’s official residence.

If the residence/permanent address is different from the location, students must provide their residence/permanent address and their location on the application for admission to each program to which they apply at Morningside College. It is the student’s responsibility to provide Morningside College with residence and location changes during their enrollment at Morningside College. Residence and location changes should be initiated by the student and maintained/updated on Campus Web.

Name Change Policy (Draft)

It is the policy of Morningside College to require current students to report changes to their legal name by providing the up-to-date social security card with the new name for U.S. citizens and Visa for international students to the Registrar's Office.
