The online search matches against the full name (first, middle and last name) and email as listed in the online directory.

If a person's complete name or the exact spelling of the name is not known, enter part of the person's name in first, middle and last name order.

For example, if searching for "John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt", you can use Jingle to search. If you search on a common name, such as John, the search may result in too many matches, and the directory service will return with an error. If this occurs, try the search again with more unique parts of the name. For example, Jo Ja Ji Sc, or John Jin, or J Schm.

More technical description

To improve search results each instance of one or more consecutive spaces in the search string is automatically replaced by an asterisk (*), which matches zero or more consecutive characters.

When matching against the full name, an asterisk is also inserted at the beginning and at the end. For example, entering John Jones will search for *John*Jones*, which will match "John Jacob Quincy Jones" as well as "Albert John L Jones" and "John Q Jones Jr."

Students & Former Students

A student has the option of choosing to be included or excluded from the online student directory. The default is to be included. To indicate or change your preference, complete the Campus Directory Suppression Form. Directory suppression is not removed automatically after graduation or upon subsequent employment by Emory.

To be included in the online directory, a directory suppressed student or former student must complete the Campus Directory Suppression Form. Former students should indicate that they are a former student now employed with Emory University and/or Emory Healthcare.

Post office box changes should be made through the Emory Post Office.

The online phone number can be changed using OPUS. If a phone number is checked in OPUS as preferred, it will be used for the online listing. If no preference is indicated, online will default to Dorm (if exists), then Mailing (if exists), then home. To modify the choice of what displays online, once signed on to OPUS, go to Personal Portfolio, then Phone Numbers, and change the selection. Changes to the phone numbers in OPUS usually take 24 hours to be effective in the online directory.

The home address and phone number included in the online directory can be changed using OPUS.

For all other changes and missing information, please contact the Registrar's Office.
