Notes

To change an institution’s name, overwrite the Description (title) in STVSBGI. In SOASBGI, indicate former name in the Comments block.

Make sure that the transcript legend clearly indicates that the institution went through a name change rather than a restructuring. Consult with the Registrar’s Office before proceeding.
