<p>All my college applications, transcripts, letter recommendations, SAT..well everything basically that you need to apply for college are under my former name.</p>

<p>However, i've just recently legally changed my first name to something else. </p>

<p>Every year some students change their names. Don’t worry about this. Contact the college and let them know that you have completed the legal process, and ask them what you need to do to update your records with them. Then send them any documentation that they ask for. Do this now so that you don’t have trouble later with your visa.</p>
