What if I find my ID card after I have reported it lost or stolen?

into Campus Card Services during office hours to have the card reinstated. There is no charge
for this service, and it only takes a few moments to have your card
reactivated. (Back to Top)
How do I get a replacement card and how much does it cost?
You must go to Campus Card Services at the IMU, located on the Mezzanine level next to the Delights snack shop, or to the ground level of Eigenmann Hall at 1910 East 10th Street, to get a replacement ID card.
Bring a photo ID (driver's license, passport, etc.) with you for identity verification
purposes. The replacement cost is $20, which can be
paid by credit/debit card, cash, check, charged to your Bursar account, or withdrawn from your CampusAccess
account. Once you have a replacement card made, any prior cards in your name are invalid. (Back to Top)
Who is eligible to obtain an ID card?
Any student who is registered for current semester classes and can be verified by the Registrar's
Office or through Continuing Studies is eligible to receive an ID card. Full-time appointed
staff can obtain an ID card once employment is verified by OneStart. Hourly staff can
receive an ID card by bringing a request from your department on departmental letterhead
that is signed by the department head. Academic appointments must be authorized in OneStart
before an ID card is processed. All persons must present some form of
photo identification before a new ID card will by processed. There is no charge for your
first card. (Back to Top)
What if my card expires or my name or classification status changes?
Once you have changed your name with the appropriate office (students at the Registrar's Office; staff at Human Resources; academic appointments at Faculty Records),
then you may have an ID card made with the new name. It is recommended that you bring the name change
documentation from the appropriate office in the event that your name has not yet been changed in the system.
There is a $5 charge for the new card if you turn in your old card. If you do not have your
old card to turn in, there will be the full replacement charge of $20. If your classification
status has changed (you were a student and now you are staff, etc.), then you must be verified
by the appropriate office before the classification status can be changed. There is no charge
for this change if you turn in your old card. There will by a $20 replacement charge if you
do not bring in your old card. (Back to Top)
What if I am eligible for two different classifications? Can both status
classifications appear on one card?
Yes, you may obtain one card for two different status classifications (for example, you are a staff person but are also enrolled as a student).
After you have been verified for both classifications, an ID card will be issued showing the
appropriate status. You should not have two separate cards with different classifications.
If you would like your card to reflect both status classifications, you must first turn in
your other card and there will be no charge for the new card. If you don't have your original
card, there will be a $20 charge for the replacement. (Back to Top)
