I-Card

  • At orientation, each new student is issued an I-Card with an individual Banner ID number and a unique ABA number.

    Once the card is validated, students swipe the card to gain access to:

    • Residence halls
    • Library services
    • Bus services
    • Fitness Centers
    • Meal plans
    • Sporting events
    • Vending (Crimson Cash)

    For general information about the I-Card, please email icard-assistance@iup.edu.

    We moved! The I-Card Office is now located in the Lobby Window Area of Clark Hall. We will be open Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM. 

    Notice

    If your I-Card has an expiration date on the back, this is to make your card a valid photo ID for voting purposes only. If you need to use your I-Card as an ID to vote, please come to the I-Card Office if the expiration date has expired. If not, as long as you are enrolled/active within the university, your card is valid and does not need replaced or renewed.

    I-Card Fees

    Starting fall 2019, each student will be charged an annual $15 I-Card fee on their student bill. Their first replacement card during the academic year will be free of charge. After the first replacement card, any additional replacement cards will be $15 and must be paid up front at the I-Card Office.

    I-Cards can function as ATM cards through IUP’s banking partner, PNC. Students will need to open an account with PNC and ask for their I-Card to be activated as their ATM card for the account.

    For more information on using your I-Card as a PNC ATM card, please call PNC at 724-465-5582 or visit the PNC website.
