The University of Memphis issues each student an identification card that bears the student's image and social security number. All students should obtain this permanent identification card that is used as the primary campus-wide method of determining privileges and accesses permitted each student. The ID card is required for the borrowing of library books, admission to or approval to pick up or purchase student tickets to athletic and social events, the sale of used text books, and other official purposes.

There is no charge to the student for the initial University ID card and it is automatically validated each semester the student enrolls. The card remains the property of the University of Memphis and should be surrendered upon the request of any University official. Each student may possess only ONE University ID card at any time.

There is no charge for the initial student ID card. There is, however, a $10 fee to replace a lost or stolen card. The replacement fee can be paid at the Customer Service Window adjacent to 115 Wilder Tower. To obtain your replacement card, present your receipt and a photo identification to the Campus Card Office, 500 Wilder Tower.
