Identification Cards
Harvard Griffin GSAS students must obtain an identification card, which is the property of Harvard University intended for University purposes only. ID cards are issued by the Campus Service Center, which provides information about how to obtain an ID card and the full ID Card Policy.
Using Your ID Card
Students must use ID cards to gain admittance to most Harvard activities and facilities including libraries, museums, dining halls, athletic buildings, and student residences (some facilities may also require additional information before access is granted).
- The front of the ID card and the magnetic strips on the back may not be covered or defaced.
- Students must present their ID card or otherwise identify themselves upon request to any properly identified employee of the University.
Misuse of ID Cards
Students are responsible for their ID card and the consequences of its misuse. ID cards are not transferable and may never be used by another person. Students who alter or falsify an ID card or produce or distribute false IDs of any kind are subject to disciplinary action.
Lost Cards
Lost, stolen, or damaged cards should be reported immediately to the Campus Service Center. Replacement cards cost $35.
