Procedures for changing one's name of surname, or reverting to one's previous name
The process for changing one's name or surname or reverting to one's previous name will differ depending on which way you make your request to issue a certificate. Please check the following information before proceeding.
This process is different from the one conducted by the Office of Alumni Affairs. Even if you have already changed your name at the Office of Alumni Affairs, the certificates issued by the Office of Student Services will not reflect this change. (This is because changing your name on official certificates requires documentation such as a copy of your family register.)
After you complete the paperwork for changing your name at the Office of Student Services, we will report it to the Office of Alumni Affairs afterwards. Please contact us if there is no need to modify the information registered with the Office of Alumni Affairs.

Necessary documentation for changing your name (any of the following)
*Time at which name changes will be reflected on official certificates
For those who are using the system for the first time, the name change will be reflected once they receive their confirmation email from the university that their registration form (or re-registration form) has been accepted. For those who have already created accounts, the name change will be reflected once they receive an email stating their paperwork for changing their name has been processed. However, please note that when it comes to actually printing the certificates, the name change will not take effect until the morning after you have received the confirmation email. As such, we ask that you file your request to issue a certificate after 7:00 a.m. the day after you receive the email .
Upload the necessary documentation needed to change your name from the certificate request system (any of the following.)
Please submit the following documents. After the office receives these documents and completes the process for officially changing your name, certificates will be issued using your current legal name.

If someone is completing this application on your behalf, they will need to submit the following documents.
If you are unable to download the "example of a letter of attorney" above, you may create your own formatted document provided that it is clear the original applicant has given their consent and the document contains the following information.
Have you received your diploma yet?
If you have yet to receive your diploma (Certificate of Graduation/Completion), you may either pick it up directly at the Student Services desk at your affiliated campus or have it mailed to an address within Japan. We ask that you follow up on this matter as quickly as possible.
For more information, please check the webpage of the campus where you graduated/completed/withdrew from university.
