Your NSU ID. Your Key to Campus Life.
Your OneCard is more than just a student ID — it’s your all-access pass to life at Northwestern. Your OneCard unlocks campus housing, dining, computer labs, student events, and more.
Need an ID?
Visit any NSU campus to get your photo taken and pick up your OneCard. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID (driver’s license, state ID, or passport) to get started.
