If you have a blank space in your first name, the system will only display the part of your first name before the blank character. This does not mean that the University has your official name incorrect; this is just how the system will display your name. As long as your registrar has your correct name, that name will appear on your degree as well as on your transcript. You can check this by logging into ACORN.

For example, if your name is Mary Ann James (and your first name is Mary Ann), then the name that displays upon activation of your UTORid will be “Mary James”. However, as long as your name appears as “Mary Ann James” on ACORN, the University has the correct official name.
