- Informs the student of his/her new UM e-mail address
These procedures allow us to take into account the use of the first name only on internal school documents (e.g. student card, registration list, e-mail address, etc.).
For changes to official documents (diplomas, contracts, agreements, etc.), a notification of authorization to change the first name is required - to be obtained from the registrar: service-public.fr
