NEW STUDENTS ID

I.D. Cards

Your SU I.D. card will serve as your official University identification and will give you access to residence halls, dining centers, snack operations, athletic facilities, library privileges, vending machines, Carrier Dome and Schine Box Office event tickets, laundry services, and the Schine Copy Center.

You are REQUIRED to electronically submit your picture for your SU I.D. Card - instructions on how to submit a picture can be found below. Please note that to ensure your card is waiting for you upon check-in at your residence hall in August we ask that your picture be submitted by June 30th.  The website to upload a picture is available.

How to upload your photo:

1. After activating you syr.edu email address and NetID you may go to http://idphoto.syr.edu and log in using your nine digit SUID number and your date of birth (mm/dd/yy).
2. Indicate your status (SU, ESF/Undergraduate, Graduate)
3. Attach a digital photo that fulfills the following requirements:
   1. A high quality, clear, color photo with a plain background
   2. A front view of your whole face with no other people or animals in the photo
   3. Taken within the past 3 months
   4. Taken without a hat or dark glasses
4. The photo must be in JPEG format and no more than 2 MB in size. Please note that you are only allowed to submit (1) photo. If we determine that the photo cannot be used then you will be notified with the option to send in another photo.

If for any reason you are unable to send a photo electronically, you can mail a photo to us. An acceptable photo should be wallet or passport photo size; a senior picture is acceptable. Please indicate your name, SUI.D. number, and status (SU, ESF, undergraduate, graduate) on a separate piece of paper and NOT on the back of the picture. This information should be mailed to Syracuse University, I.D. Services, 206 Steele Hall, Syracuse, NY 13244-1120.

We will still be able to process photos received after June 30 and before August 15 - however we can not guarantee that the ID will be waiting for you upon your check-in at your residence hall in August.
