While investigating a security related issue involving a computer owned and housed by the Admissions department at Middle Tennessee State University, it was discovered that a file existed on the computer containing your name and social security number. Although we have discovered that it was technically possible to access this file containing your personal information, we have no evidence that this file was actually accessed by anyone. We are notifying you simply as a precaution.

We recommend you place a "fraud alert" on your credit file with the three major credit bureaus. This is a free service that will request creditors to verify your identity before opening a new account. For instructions on how to use this service, please see http://www.mtsu.edu/~idalert/.

We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause; however, we wanted you to be fully informed of the potential risks. Please be assured that the Admissions department and MTSU continually review our processes in order to maintain personally identifiable information in a secure environment. We will keep you apprised of any further developments.
