The BYU ID card is your official university identification. It is used to open doors, access Cougar Cash, meal plans and other campus services. You can also use the BYU mobile app ID for many campus services.

Students and employees, before visiting to get an ID card, please submit a new photo online - click here.
Photo submission is required for students and employees beginning April.

New students - please submit your photo at least 5 weeks before the start of your first semester/term! New students moving into BYU housing must submit an approved photo by April 10th to receive their ID card for housing checkin.

Employee, retiree and their spouse and dependent ID cards are available at the Benefits Office, D-240 ASB.

We support BYU Dress and Grooming Standards. Students and employees must meet all standards to get a new card or have a lost card returned. We don't like asking anyone to change and come back later - BUT WE WILL. Thank you for supporting Dress and Grooming Standards with us!

Spouses and Dependents

Eligible spouses and dependents, please visit at least one week before or after the start of a new semester or term. The ID Center will be focused on getting ID cards to new students during this time and you may be asked to wait until all students have been helped. Employee spouses and dependents can also get an ID card at the Benefits Office, D-240 ASB.

Family and Friends accompanying students

Please wait for your student outside the ID Center. We appreciate your help in keeping a clear path for students and practicing social distancing. Thank you!
