<p>I want to change my full name before college. Meaning i dont want colleges to see my real name, whether it be from psat/sat results or transcripts. I dont want to change my name in high school though, but will if i have too i would like to delay it as long as possible. When would be the best time to change my name?</p>
<p>Well, then you would need to change it before you write any PSAT or SAT results, as well as get some photo ID with the new legal name so you can write those tests.</p>
<p>You will have to change your name in high school in order to change the name on your transcripts.</p>
<p>Is it simply aesthetic? What are your motives?</p>
<p>i got mine changed sophomore year and it worked out with no problems. </p>
<p>(and my motives were practical. no one called me by my given first name, so i changed it to my middle name.)</p>
<p>"before you write any PSAT or SAT results..."
^ That should read, "before you write any PSAT or SAT tests.
Need to proofread better :P</p>
