Keep your NMSU contact info up-to-date.

Updating your contact information

Many students enter their contact information when they complete their admissions application, then never visit that information again. It is critical that NMSU be able to contact students to keep them up-to-date with important campus deadlines and events.

Among the many reasons you should update your contact information are:

• NMSU communications: Many offices use this information to contact you. This is our primary way to let you know about everything from Financial Aid to employer visits.
• Emergency notifications: Opting-in to this system allows NMSU to send you emergency information via email, voice, or text message. For example, in February of 2011, NMSU was shut down for three days to help the local community during a power emergency. Notification of the shutdown was sent out over the NMSU Emergency Notification system.
• Manage your personal information: At the Personal Information tab, you can restrict what appears in the NMSU online directory.
