The RUconnection card is the official Rutgers University photo ID
card. It enables students to check out library books, use recreation
centers on the campuses, and access meal plan or RU Express debit
services. It also functions as a general campus ID.
Cards are
available at the RU Express office (Records Hall, Room 102, College Avenue Campus;
732-932-8041) or at the RUconnection Card offices on Busch, Livingston, and Douglass/Cook campuses. No appointment is necessary.
In order to
receive an ID card, a student already must be registered for classes
and present a valid form of identification (e.g., driver's license,
passport). There is no charge to new students for the RUconnection
card. (There is a $15 replacement fee for lost cards.)
