Your RowanCard is your official photo identification at the University and should be carried at all times. Although it is a single card, it has several functions and grants you access to many privileges. All Rowan students are required to obtain a RowanCard. Regardless of whether you are a commuter, residential, or online student, if you are enrolled at Rowan University, you must take the necessary steps to obtain a RowanCard.

Identification
Your RowanCard is your official identification at the University and should be carried with you at all times. It's more than just a photo ID—it confirms your status at Rowan (student, faculty, staff, or affiliate) and grants you access to campus life.
How it Works:
-
Identification: The photo instantly verifies you as the card owner.
-
Access: A simple swipe of the magnetic stripe or a tap on a reader grants you access to:
-
Residence halls and certain campus buildings (labs, study areas).
-
Swiping for meal plans and campus events.
-
Financial services, like paying for purchases with Rowan Bucks and Dining Dollars.
-
🚨 Non-Transferable Policy: DO NOT Share Your Card
The RowanCard is the property of Rowan University and is strictly non-transferable. This is a serious policy to protect your security and campus resources.
-
You are the only person permitted to use your RowanCard for spending funds, swiping for meals, or accessing buildings.
-
Consequences: If your card is presented by someone other than the cardholder, or if it is involved in inappropriate or illegal use:
-
The card will be immediately confiscated.
-
The cardholder will be subject to disciplinary action.
-
Protect your identity and privileges—never lend your RowanCard to anyone!
