Student

 

All students registered for class may obtain an I-Card beginning one week before the start of the semester they are attending.  A photo ID is required before a card will be issued (driver's license, passport, etc.). 

 

Students wishing to obtain an I-Card must be in BYU-Idaho dress and grooming standards. 

 

The I-Card is yours to use but remains the property of the University. The I-Card must be returned to the University upon request. Fraudulent use of any I-Card may result in disciplinary action. You are entitled to have only ONE card in your possession. 

 

• University departments, personnel or community businesses mayh not ask to retain your I-Card as collateral for goods or services. Report any such occurrences to the I-Card Office.
• In order to minimize your losses it is your responsibility to inform the I-Card Office if you believe that your card has been lost or stolen.
• The spouse of a student may obtain an I-Card for free as long as they are in the dress & grooming standards of BYU-Idaho.

 

 

Care of the Card

 

• Don't bend the I-card; card readers cannot read bent or cracked cards.
• Don't wash your card; doing so could damage the magnetic strip.
• Keep the back of the card away from the back of other cards with magnetic strip; the magnetic fields can erase each other.
• Keep your card away from any magnetic fields such as VCR's, stereo speakers or magnetic boards found at grocery stores and some department stores.
• Care for your I-Card the same as you would your driver's license, credit cards, or cash.
• DON'T USE THE CARD AS AN ICE SCRAPER TO CLEAN YOUR CAR WINDOWS, IT WILL BREAK.  (You will be charged for a new card).
