ID Services

Photo identification cards are issued to each student at the time of initial registration at the university. It is expected that the ID card will be retained throughout the students’ university experience. Replacement ID cards are $15.

Students are Expected to Carry University ID at All Times while on Campus
The card is the property of Barry University and is intended solely for its use. When requested by a university official, students are required to produce their university identification. It is not transferable and must be returned upon request. Misuse of the ID card will result in disciplinary action.

Currently, the library, the computer lab, athletic facilities, sporting events, select residence halls, and parking lots are using a contactless card access system. All food and dining service locations accept the Barry ID card as a mode of payment. However, money or a meal plan must be added to your ID card prior to making any purchases. For use in these locations, Flex Bucs can be added to the ID card.

There are two ways of placing money on to your Flex account:

  • Any excess of financial aid (i.e., loans, grants, scholarships), after the cost of your tuition and fees are covered, can be placed, at your request, on to your card by submitting a request to the Student Accounts Office at studentaccounts@barry.edu. Request must indicate dollar amount being requested and cannot exceed $800.00.

         OR

  • Login to the GetMobile app to pay and add funds to the student ID card.
