How do I change my last name on my Canvas account

[SarayaPeterson]

I changed my legal last name in my TTU portal, but it did not transfer to Canvas, and my account still has my maiden name. Is there a way to change it to my new name?

I know it's been a few months, were you able to get your name updated?

Hi @SarayaPeterson ...

In addition to @Renee_Carney's question, I thought I'd chime in as well.  Typically, for name changes, you would want to contact someone at Texas Tech University ... such as their Registration department or someone from their Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education team.  I spent a little bit of time searching the TTU website for a student support site, and the only thing I was able to find was: Terms | 8-Week Program | Online | TTU.  On this page, if you scroll down a bit, there's a section on INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS.  And, right below there is another section for NEED HELP?.  There's an e-mail address there that you could use to start the conversation to get your name changed.

I hope this will be of some help to you.  Good luck!
