Important: Correct Addresses for 2014 Commencement Mailing
In May 2013, the office of Conferences and Events will mail Commencement information to parents and/or guardians of students planning to participate in Commencement on June 8, 2014. We strongly urge you to confirm that your parents' or guardians' addresses are CORRECT in Banner.
Go to BannerStudent. Click on the "Addresses" link. Review the following address types:
Parent Address (or Custodial)
Permanent/Legal Address
You may make changes to either of these addresses by entering the updated information and submitting it.
Also, if you would like more than one parent or guardian to receive a mailing, and only one shows on Banner, inform the Registrar's Office that you wish to include a second name/address in the Non-custodial Parent Address section of BannerStudent by emailing registrar@dartmouth.edu.
