There is a responsibility to appropriately use and safeguard the College's property. This includes but is not limited to the campus identification card. Use of another's identification card by unauthorized persons causes a serious breach in the security measures designed to protect all members of the campus community.

Marist Card Services -  ID Card Photo Statement

Marist College maintains a campus identification (ID) system for the purpose of identification and access to various campus services, programs, and facilities.

All photos in the campus ID system are under the ownership of Marist College. By taking your photo ID, you understand and consent that the photo of yourself for your Marist College ID card may be kept by Marist College and used for educational and other college-related purposes only.

Getting Your Marist ID Card - New Student, Faculty, and Staff

First Year Resident Students

First Year Resident Students will receive their ID card during the residence hall check-in.  To have your ID card ready for you upon your arrival, we ask that you submit a professional color photo.  The photo must show a full front view of your head and shoulders with no hat or sunglasses. JPEG photo file format is recommended, and should not exceed 12MB.  The photo should be submitted at myphoto.marist.edu.

New Faculty and Staff

For new Faculty and Staff once they have submitted their signed contract to Human Resources, you can submit their photo to myphoto.marist.edu.

Getting Your Marist ID Card - Summer Programs, Conferences, Contractors, and Vendors

Summer programs, conferences, contractors, and vendors,  (those that are not registered students, faculty or staff employees)  will receive a unique white card. The contractor or vendor must have their Marist College point of contact complete an ID card only form which can be found at www.marist.edu/infotech/services/forms requesting a contractor/vendor ID card. Bring the completed request to the help desk located in Donnelly Hall and a campus wide ID number will be assigned within 24 hours. Once the Marist point of contact has the campus wide ID number for the contractor or vendor the Card Office will issue the ID card.

Requesting Building Access

If you require access to dorms, library, gym, etc. you will need to go to The Office of Safety and Security for access. The Card Office is unable to provide door access. For Marist employees requiring access to restricted areas (other than dorms) please see your supervisor or manager. Building access and Parking Permits are issued by the Office of Safety and Security.

Marist ID Card Replacements

Identification cards are an important part of our campus security program. The ID cards serve many purposes. They permit the use of various services and facilities around campus. They allow access to secure work areas and provide a means of identification as people move about student or restricted access areas. For identity purposes, only students that are registered for classes can receive a valid identification card.

To emphasize the seriousness of the College's commitment to a safe campus and the level of care people should take to keep their identification cards from being used by unauthorized persons, there is a $20.00 replacement fee. This is charged to anyone for the replacement of a lost identification card. Please email Cardservices@marist.edu with your name and CWID.  

Marist Money

Now Marist Money deposits can be made online. You, family, or friends can add Marist Money via a credit card to your student ID card. By clicking the Make a Deposit link at the left of the screen you may make a Marist Money deposit online using your Master, Visa or Discover card. Sorry, Amex is not accepted.


Marist Money is a convenient, prepaid money management account which allows you to enjoy campus wide purchasing power. The advantage to Marist Money is you never need to carry cash, as your student ID card also serves as your Marist Money Card.

How does the account work?

Funds in your Marist Money account can be used for purchases in the college bookstore, post office, the digital publication center (copies, faxes), campus coffee shops, the Cabaret, main dining hall, computer store, college activities (ticket sales, trips), and selected off campus merchants.

Your funds are placed in an account that only your activated Marist College ID card can access. Each time you insert your card into a reader your account balance is decreased by the amount of that sale. The system then informs you of your account balance.

NO CASH WITHDRAWALS ARE AVAILABLE FROM THE MARIST MONEY ACCOUNT. MARIST MONEY CANNOT BE USED TO PURCHASE ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, LOTTERY TICKETS, GIFT CARDS OR GIFT CERTIFICATES.

You may add funds via credit card, in person, over the phone or online. You can make a deposit with a check, money order, or cash. Checks or money orders must be made out to Marist Money. Please include the student's CWID number on the check or money order.
