Replacement IDs cost $25 for students (charged to the student's account) and $10 for faculty/staff (cash or check only).

Students are responsible for registering replacement IDs with Dining Services in order to prevent fraudulent use of lost or stolen ID cards. 

Damaged IDs can be exchanged at the library for new IDs, free of charge (must surrender damaged ID to qualify for free replacement).
