<p>Right now the email is the standard address (ej. ab1234@nyu). How do I change the address of this email to my preference (ej. john1234@nyu). I opened up the email from Albert and went under settings, but I didn't know how to change it. I tried renaming it and clicked "Save Changes" but the address is still the same.</p>

<p>To change your email you don’t have to go through Albert. Go to the NYU login page for students, then at the top menu bar, click preferences. Scroll down and find all the changes you would want to make for your email.</p>
<p>^^^Thank you</p>
<p>Also, I had a name change recently because I got my citizenship. The preference option won’t allow me to change the name. Do I need to contact the school personally on this issue?</p>
<p>if you want to change your official name, go find the bursar/registrar office on 25 west 4th st.</p>
<p>what you are asking for is an official name name rather than an email alias</p>
<p>Can we ever change the official NYU address? Or just the personal and online directory?</p>
