Your WashU student ID card makes your affiliation with WashU official. Your card is your proof of identity on campus, holds your individual meal plan, and grants access to your residential community on the South 40 and academic buildings across the Danforth Campus.

By August 1, 2025, all new undergraduate students must complete a WashU student ID card application at card.wustl.edu/new-replacement-washu-id-cards/ in order to receive their ID during check in on move-in day. If you are arriving on August 12, you must have completed this by July 29, 2025.
