How do I get a student ID?

We strongly encourage all students attending classes at the Dubois Center to utilize the 49er Mobile ID Program. The Mobile ID serves as your primary identification and grants you access to the Dubois Center uptown campus, as well as a variety of university resources.

All new students will automatically be enrolled in the 49er Mobile ID program. If you already have a physical 49er ID, please be aware that setting up your Mobile ID on a new device will deactivate your physical ID, and you will need to use the Mobile ID moving forward.
