What is your OneCard?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Valparaiso University OneCard is your photo ID on campus complete with name, picture, and your ID number. If you need to receive a OneCard, you need to come to the IT Help Desk in person. We are located on the bottom floor of the Library, our hours today are 8AM-5PM. If this is your first one card, it will be free of charge. Any further questions please let us know. (Also please bring some form of ID, drivers license, etc for verification). <\/strong>It is important to keep your card safe and functioning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Residential undergraduate students have access to all other residence halls from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.. Any other required access is at the discretion of the supervisors of the buildings you might need to access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
