If the college/university has changed its name after one has received a degree, how should the college name appear on the resume?

York College of Pennsylvania was York Junior College when I received my Associates' degree. How should I list the college on my current resume? Thanks.

Answer: Mary, you can just list both names on the resume, like either:

York College of Pennsylvania, formerly York Junior College

OR

York Junior College, now called York College of Pennsylvania

Either one would be correct and acceptable.
