Important Yale Student ID Card Information

NEW STUDENTS WERE REQUIRED TO SUBMIT A PHOTO FOR YALE UNIVERSITY ID CARD by May 31st (or as soon as your get a NetID if you are a late admit)

Yale University issues all students an official photo identification card to gain access to studios, buildings, transportation facilities, libraries and other services. Your Net ID and University ID card are your keys to the city at Yale.

Please be advised that Yale will use your preferred name* to generate your initial Yale email address and ID card. If you wish to change your preferred name or use your legal name for your primary Yale email address or your ID card, you must log in to the student information system after you receive your NETID and indicate this. Desired changes to the name displayed on your ID card must be made by August 1, before the cards are printed to avoid a charge for printing a new card.

In order to have your University ID card ready for you upon your arrival on campus, all incoming students must electronically submit a color PASSPORT PHOTO. If a Passport Photo is not available, you may submit a color snapshot showing a full front view of your head and shoulders. Please submit all photos no later than May 31st by going to:

Please note that this photo will also be used to create a School of Art face page directory which is used exclusively within the School.
