The ºÚÁÏÕýÄÜÁ¿Card is much more than a traditional ID. Not only does it identify you as a member of the ºÚÁÏÕýÄÜÁ¿community, it also allows you access to the dining halls and other campus facilities; operates on the basis of a declining balance account for various purchases on and off campus; and holds all the information concerning your meal plan.

All funds deposited to declining balance accounts must remain on your account until graduation, withdrawal or separation from ºÚÁÏÕýÄÜÁ¿. At that time, a written refund request must be submitted to the ºÚÁÏÕýÄÜÁ¿Campus Card Office.

If you are a first-year student and plan to visit the campus this summer, you may obtain your ºÚÁÏÕýÄÜÁ¿Card at that time. This will save you valuable time during orientation.

The Card and Purchases

You may use it at the ºÚÁÏÕýÄÜÁ¿Shop to buy books, supplies or any of the other items the shop carries. It may also be used at the Spa, the Burgess Café, the ºÚÁÏÕýÄÜÁ¿Post Office and Health Services, as well as in vending machines, and library copiers. You may also use your card at various locations off campus. To view a list of these off-campus merchants that accept the card, please click here.
