Good morning...My surname was wrongly spelled on my University Senate list. Can anyone with authentic information assist with the procedure for getting this rectified. I'm getting differing answers online so I'd prefer someone with firsthand experience with the same issue or similar issue. Thanks in advance

When checking if you were shortlisted, you have to use the mis spelt name sent by the senate, else if you use your correctly spelt you might not see your name.

Yes...you are right...I've been able to verify that...but do you have any idea on how I can correct the error..
