Students, faculty, and staff needing a Saint Mary's ID card can get one by visiting the Helpdesk. You will need to show government-issued identification (driver's license, passport) before a Saint Mary's ID card will created for you. You should obtain your Saint Mary's ID card within your first week on campus.

If you need a new Saint Mary's ID card because:

• the photo on your old card is no longer visible (a common problem after numerous swipes through the residence hall detex card readers and dining hall visits), please bring the card with you to the Helpdesk for a replacement.

• the mag stripe (for detex) or the junk stripe (for laundry and vending machine money) on the card can no longer be read, please bring the card with you to the Helpdesk for a replacement.

• your old card has broken, please bring the pieces with you to the Helpdesk for a replacement. You will need to bring over 50% of your broken card with you to not be charged a $15.00 replacement fee.

• your old card was lost, you will need to pay a $15.00 replacement fee. Please visit the Cashier's Window in Le Mans Hall (near the Financial Aid offices) to pay the fee, and bring the receipt with you to have a new ID card made. (If your ID card is lost/stolen after the Helpdesk closes for the day or during a weekend, students need to visit the Security Building and request a temporary missing card from the dispatcher. The temporary card may be used to eat in the dining hall for a limited time or until the ID card is replaced. The temporary card will not work for the Detex system.)

New ID cards will not be made for unnecessary reasons, such as not liking the picture that is on the card.
