Who should have a WESTCONNect ID Card?
All registered students, faculty, staff and university affiliates must obtain a WESTCONNect ID Card. This includes all part-time, evening and summer students. Department contacts are responsible for working with the WESTCONNect Office to make appropriate arrangements for visitors, contractors, vendors and other non-University personnel who are authorized to be on University grounds.
ISSUANCE: You will need to bring a valid form of photo identification (driver's license, state identification card, passport) and your course schedule verifying registration for the current semester (for students), or your Human Resource form (for employees) .
Replacement Cards: Lost, stolen or damaged cards should be reported immediately to the WESTCONNect Card Office during normal business hours. Students, Faculty and Staff may also repot their card as lost or stolen online by going through WESTCONNDUIT at www.wcsu.edu, selecting the Academic Tools Tab, and then navigating to WESTCONNect Card Account Management under University Services. Residents are also responsible for notifying their Resident Directors when their card is lost or stolen.
Students: Cards that have been lost, stolen, or damaged due to vandalism or neglect will be replaced for a fee of $15 payable at the Cashier's Office.
