This procedure describes the requirements for obtaining consent from human research subjects participating in research conducted under the auspices of UNC-Chapel Hill.

Historically, requests for SSN changes have been handled in a decentralized manner. Since all Student and employee data is now housed in a single system and is utilized by a number of University offices and processes, it is important to standardize the process. This Policy will define the SSN change procedures to ensure consistent practices across campus.

The purpose of this SOP is to establish written requirements to ensure the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's compliance with U.S. Department of Education requirements regarding human subjects research.

The University established this policy in accordance with North Carolina General Statute (N.C.G.S.) Chapter 75, subsections 61 and 62 to protect individual records and information and to prevent involuntary disclosure of individual social security numbers.
