Your code could be greatly simplified with the use of a couple of arrays and a hash.

Try something like this. (UNTESTED)

my %hash;
my @hashkey = qw(fname lname school phone position role pass);
my @query = ('First Name','Last Name','The School you work at', etc...
+. );


my $number = 0;
while ($number < 8) {
  system "cls";
  print "You have entered these Values for each of these fields.";
  print "If you wish to Fix any of the information now. Select Number 
+to Change:\n";


  print "\t1. $query[0]: $hash{$hashkey[0]\n";
  print "\t2. $query[1]: $hash{$hashkey[1]\n";
  ..
  ..
  print "\t8. Done\n";

  print "Type a number to Choose to fix: ";

  $number = <STDIN>;
  if ($number < 8 ) {
    system "cls";
    while ($hash{$hashkey[$number]} eq "") {
      printf "\n\nPlease Enter your $query[$number]: ";
      $hash{$hashkey[$number]} = <STDIN>;
      chomp($hash{$hashkey[$number]});
    }
  }
}

exit;
