All members of the USD community may be issued an official university identification card - the Torero ID Card - through the Campus Card Services office.

To receive a Torero ID Card:

  • Students must be currently registered for classes
  • Faculty/staff receive authorization through Human Resources
When you pick up your card, please bring with you a valid picture ID such as a driver's license or a passport for identity verification.

    • Use your USD login to enter the GET website
    • On the right under "Quick Links" select Upload ID Photo
  • Photo Requirements
    • Photo must be less than 1 MB. (If you need to resize your photo there are free photo editing sites available online)
    • Background must be solid white
    • Photo should be a headshot (head and shoulders only)
    • In the photo you may not:
      • Be wearing sunglasses

3. Protect Your Card

  • Protect your card by keeping it away from excessive heat.
  • Protect your card from becoming demagnetized by avoiding contact with electromagnetic equipment such as cell phones, TVs, speakers, microwaves, etc.
  • Don't bend, fold, punch holes in, or otherwise mutilate your card. Don't carry it in your back pocket, let pets - or children - play with or chew on your card. Don't use your card as a tool or to scrape anything.
Replacement card fee is $25. Once a card is replaced the old card cannot be reactivated.
