Student Previous Name

Any time certain student name fields are changed in the Student Admissions Information window (Salutation, First, Middle, and Last Name, Preferred, Social Security, or Maiden Name), CAMS will automatically populate the Previous Name form with the older information. Data can be entered into this form manually as well. If the Student record was loaded from Prospect, the Previous Name grid will remain synchronized between the two records.

To manually enter a previous name:

Open the Student Previous Name form by clicking Prev Name in the "More" tab of the Student Admissions Information window.
Right-click in the Previous Names data grid to open the entry screen.
Supply appropriate values for the name to be retired.
Click Add to save entry or Cancel to exit without saving changes.
