When you enroll in classes at Drew or are hired to work here, you provide the University with some basic information that identifies you. Of course, details like phone numbers, mailing addresses, or even emails do not necessarily remain static for your entire life! As long as you can log in to your Drew account, you can visit the Personal Information page at the new Banner Self Service my.drew.edu link to view and update the information in your file.

  1. Visit my.drew.edu
  2. Log in if prompted
  3. Click "Personal Information"

In the first box, Personal Details, you will see various pieces of information. 

  • Many of these you cannot change, but the "Edit" link in the corner does allow you to update your marital status, preferred name, personal pronoun, and gender identification. 
  • Enter changes and click Update.

Review the Email section to ensure the University has your current personal email address (useful in case you cannot log in to your Drew account and need to request a password reset when you are not on campus!). 

  1. To add a new email address, click the "+Add New" link in the corner of the Email box.
    1. Although you will see additional options, you may only update the Personal, Parent/Guardian, Parent/Guardian 2, and Spouse/Partner email types. Choose the appropriate one from the drop down list.
  2. Enter the new email address and a comment if desired.
    1. Do NOT click the "Preferred" check box.
  3. Click Add.
  4. To make changes to an existing account (for instance, if you need to remove an account you no longer use or see a typo), choose the edit (pencil) or delete (trash can) icon beneath the address. 
  5. Enter changes and click Update or confirm that you want to Delete.

Review the Phone Number section to ensure the University has the correct number to provide for emergency broadcasts like snow closures (think positively, folks).

  • You can add or edit a Cell Phone, Parent/Guardian (all 4 types), Permanent, or Spouse/Significant Other (both types) phone number.

Review the Address section to make sure communications including paychecks and diplomas are properly directed.

  • Everyone can add a Parent/Guardian (both types) or Permanent mailing address. 
  • Employees can add a new office location. Be sure to update the valid from date, and to add a valid to date on an old office location.
  1. To add an address, click the "+Add New" link in the corner of the Address box.
    1. You have to have a Permanent address on file (with valid dates) at all times.
    2. Fill out the required fields (including the "Valid From This Date" field if adding an address).
  2. To correct a current address or add an end date for an address you will be moving away from, choose the edit (pencil) icon beneath that address.
    1. Enter changes and click Update.
    2. Please make sure to also add a "Valid Until" date on any old addresses!

Review the Emergency Contact section. We do not need to explain why this information should be accurate and up to date.

  • As with the other sections, you can click the "+Add New" link in the corner of the Emergency Contact box and you can choose the edit (pencil) icon beneath a current emergency contact to update information.


If you cannot log in to your Drew account and need to make changes to your personal information, or if you need to add/update an address type that you do not have permission to change:
