When you first create an account on College Confidential, you have to create a username. By default, if you use your Google or Facebook account, your username will include your first and last name. That is not recommended on CC, so here’s how you can change it:
1. Click on your profile circle in the upper right. Click the little person icon.
2. Click on Preferences.
3. Click the little pencil next to your username.
If you don’t see a pencil, it means you are out of the initial 60 day window to change your username. Send a private message to an admin (like me), or email admin@collegeconfidential.com to request a username change. Be sure to include what you would like it changed to.
4. Enter your new username and click “Change”
All done!
What if I’m outside of the window to change my username?
If you have any problem changing your own username, please send an email to admin@collegeconfidential.com.
