Changing Surname (Applying to university)
I have already sent off my UCAS application have recieved 2 offers already, still waiting to hear back from UCL and Imperial.
I am looking to change my surname, due to personal reasons. Would it be advisable to change it now while these Unis are still processing my application, after i receive all of my offers or in the summer?
I am wary that if i change it now, during the decision making process of the unis,it may cause more complications. On the other hand, i need to renew my passport and apply for my drivers license soon, so now would be a good time.
Any advice from someone who has previously been through this process will be appreciated
