During the current health crisis, it's more important than ever that the university have the latest contact information for all students. Updating the information can be done through the Manage My Account tab on TUportal. 

Here are answers to your most frequently asked questions regarding this information request.

What is the difference between the address labels?
Living Address: The address at which you live during the semester. This could be an off-campus residence or your home away from campus, where you're taking your online classes. 
Mailing Address: The address at which you would like to receive mail from the university. This may be the same as your living address or your permanent address, but may also be a local PO Box or mailbox separate from where you live. 
Permanent Address: The address at which you live long term. This is where you live when you're not at Temple.
Residence Hall Address: If you live in an official residence hall, that address will be displayed and will be treated as your Living Address. Do not set your Mailing Address to your Residence Hall Address.
 
Why do you need my address and phone number? 
In the event of an emergency, it is important to know who may be impacted and how we can reach them to provide support. Additionally, the university is required by law to report where our students are actively receiving our instruction.
 
What will you do with my information?
As previously stated, the university is required by law to report where our students are actively receiving instruction. Beyond that report, the university will only use this information in the event of an emergency. Providing this information will help us determine who may be impacted by a potential emergency and how best to reach them.

Will I have to do this again?
You will be prompted during landmark moments in the academic year that typically result in a change of address. This means you'll see the pop-up prompting you to update your address following the add/drop date, the residence halls closing after fall break, and following the January add/drop date. We encourage you to change your address through the "Manage My Account" tab on TUportal each time you move.
