myCSUNprofile

At California State University, Northridge, we’re all proud Matadors with our own unique identities. Now, with myCSUNprofile, you have the opportunity to ensure that others get to know the real you. By providing a snapshot of how you would prefer to be recognized, myCSUNprofile allows CSUN professors and staff to better honor you as an individual — and that creates an even more respectful, inclusive learning community for all of us.

myCSUNprofile has been updated to allow you to opt in to display your student ID photo in the SOLAR class roster, update your mailing address, phone number and emergency contact information and list a preferred name. You can continue to record your name for proper pronunciation as well. A preferred pronoun option will be added soon. Check back later this year for updates.

To access your myCSUNprofile, log in to the myNorthridge Portal and select the myCSUNprofile quick link icon, located on the Home tab, or simply select the button below.

Record your name

To record your name, you’ll need to sign in using your campus username and password. After successfully signing in, you will have the option to use a web recorder or your device’s microphone. You can also enter a phone number to record via an automated callback. The entire process is free; it’s secure and only takes a few minutes.

Name recording page

You only have to record your name once; however, you may re-record as many times as you like. During the spring 2018 semester, your recording will only be used in SOLAR faculty class rosters and the Canvas learning management system. As myCSUNprofile is further developed, look for features to be integrated to support other student services, such as commencement.

Your ID photo will be automatically imported to SOLAR, and once it shows up in myCSUNprofile, all you have to do is select the opt-in option.
