PolyCard

All Cal Poly community members are issued a PolyCard, or campus identification card. Each PolyCard is tied to a Campus Express account, which can be used like a debit card to purchase food, printing, and other supplies on campus.

Resources on Campus

  • If a student has a dining plan, they can use their PolyCard to purchase meals at campus dining locations.

  • A PolyCard also allows students to access resources at Robert E. Kennedy Library and the Health Center.

Additional Benefits

  • Students, faculty, and staff can ride SLO transit for free by showing their PolyCard. 

  • Your PolyCard is tied to your library account, giving you access to online resources like OneSearch which becomes available the morning after your card is printed.

Costs and Replacement

Your first PolyCard is printed for free. The cost of a replacement PolyCard is $5 and payment must be made via Campus Express

 

Quickstart

  1. Upload a photo of yourself via the CS Gold WebCard Center.

  2. Visit the ITS Service Desk to pick up your card.
