HPU ID Card
The HPU ID card contains a color photo, as well as a computer-generated student, faculty or staff number.
- Every student, whether new or continuing, needs an ID card since it is recognized as a student's official campus identification. The card is required for such activities as getting a student handbook and utilizing the University's intercampus shuttle service. It also entitles full-time students to free or reduced-rate entrance to athletic events, and Student Life & First-Year Programs, Student Government Association (SGA), and Campus Activities Board (CAB) functions.
- HPU faculty and staff members also need a ID card since it serves as the individual's official identification.
The ID card is required to gain access to certain services of the University Libraries (Atherton Library and Meader Library), the Computer Center, the Educational Technology Center, and the Tutoring Centers.
Additionally, many merchants recognize the ID card for the purposes of providing discounts on various services and products.
