Students must have an active role and be registered in official University schools and degree programs to be eligible to receive an RU ID. Additionally, you must have activated your NetID and uploaded your photo online. Those with multiple roles will receive an RU ID that indicates their primary relationship with the University based on the following hierarchy (employees, students, and guests). Do not alter or punch holes in your RU ID.
You must upload your photo online for your RU ID. This can be done via your enrollment pathway.
Photo requirements, restrictions, and an online photo submission tutorial can be viewed
here. You will receive an email confirmation of your photo's approval status (approved or denied). Please check your official Rutgers email account, your personal email account, and your Spam/Junk folders. If your photo did not meet the requirements, please upload a new photo that does.
Most new graduate students will need to visit an ID Card Service Center to obtain their RU ID.
You can find more information and service center locations online
