Student Identification Card (Allcard)

Summary of Policy

The Allcard is the official Allegheny College picture ID card. In addition to identifying the relationship with the College, the card provides access to campus events, activities, residence halls, other building, meal plans, and the library.

Reason for Policy

To enhance a more user-friendly environment for students, faculty, and staff by providing a high quality, single card system that allows efficient access to card-related services throughout Allegheny College and to seek new and expanded uses of the card through improved, advanced technology.

The Policy

The AllCard is your photo ID. The AllCard may be used only by the individual to whom it is registered and is non-transferable. The AllCard is intended to last the duration of your stay. It is the cardholders responsibility to protect and maintain the condition of the card. Keep your Allcard with you at all times. The AllCard is valid while the cardholder still has an active status with Allegheny College. See the Student Financial Services website for details on the many functions of the Allcard.
