How do I delete my emergency contact?

Your primary emergency contact cannot be deleted. If you have more than one emergency contact, you can "promote" another contact to be your primary, and then delete the former primary.

To promote an alternate contact to primary contact:

  1. Log into StanfordYou.
  2. Click Maintain your external emergency contact information.
  3.  Click make this my primary contact next to the name of the contact.

If you have only one emergency contact, and that person is no longer valid or appropriate as a contact for you, select someone else who can be your emergency contact and enter their information in place of your current contact. Accurate emergency contact information is vital in case of personal or campus emergencies.

To add an emergency contact:

  1. Log into StanfordYou.
  2. Click Maintain your external emergency contact information.
  3. Next to Emergency contacts, click add new contact and enter the contact information.
  4. Click Save.
