ID Cards
The ID photo submission form is now functioning properly. If you have not yet provided your photo, please do so as soon as possible. If you experience any issues, or are unsure if your photo and form were accepted, please contact t.reilly@usciences.edu.
Your University ID Card is not only an identification card, but it’s also an access card to certain campus buildings and a debit card at participating campus locations. You can add funds to your account, check your balance and review your transactions online.
How Your ID Card Works
Once your OneCard account is activated and you have deposited money into your account you can draw on these funds by presenting your ID Card at participating campus locations. This is an on-line system. There is no actual value on the card. All the transactions are maintained in the host computer. If you lose your card all of your present account value is transferred to your new ID card.
Lost cards are replaced at the Office of Public Safety in Wilson Hall, Room 130.
The large magnetic strip on the back of your card contains your meal plan and OneCard Account identification number. This allows you to access your meal plan and your OneCard Account.
Important Information
- Keep your card with you at all times-don't lend it to anyone else.
- DO NOT punch holes, affix stickers, or in any other way make modifications to your ID card. Such practices may create problems when trying to use your card for Official University business and card swipe functions!
- Don't lay the card down on any magnetic surface.
- Problems with your card, meal plans, debit stripe, or OneCard Account may be addressed at the Office of Public Safety- Wilson Hall, Room 130 or contact t.reilly@usciences.edu.
