About the ID Card

The SRU ID card is your identification card and more!

It offers you a convenient, easy, and safe way to make purchases and utilize campus services.

The SRU ID card is your meal card, library card, and activity card all rolled into one. For those students living in a residence hall, it provides access to your building. When a debit account is activated, the SRU ID card works similar to a checking account in that the funds deposited into your account are debited each time you make a purchase.

Your ID card is valuable and you should treat it like cash or a credit card.

For identification and security, your photograph is printed on your SRU ID card. Your photo is digitally stored in our database so that we only need to capture your image once. If you lose your card, we can issue a new card using your original photograph, or we can take another photograph.

Services

Dining - All students contracted for a meal plan must use their SRU ID card to obtain their meals. Most meal plans include a Flex Fund which is a debit account that may be used within the food service operations as designated. The account may be increased in $25 increments at any time during the semester.

Door Access in Residence Halls - For those students living in a residence hall or ROCK Apartments, your SRU ID card provides access to your building. If your card does not work for your building access contact the Office of Residence Life at 724.738.2082.

It is your responsibility to ensure that your ID card remains in working condition. As a security measure, your card must be read by "swiping" it through a card reader terminal. If you lose or damage your card, you must replace it.

DO NOT punch holes, affix stickers, or in any other way make modifications to your SRU ID card. Such practices may create problems when trying to use your card for Official University business and card swipe functions!

The following are regulations concerning the use of ID cards:

Each student is required to have an SRU ID card in his/her possession at all times. Students may, upon request of a university official, be required to show a university ID card for identification purposes.
Properly validated ID cards are to be used only by the person whose name and picture appear on the card.
An ID card must be shown before a student will be allowed to enter a university function.
Only students with a properly validated ID card may use the card as a "meal ticket" or for withdrawing materials from the library.
