Student ID Cards
All Blue Ridge Community College students are strongly encouraged to get a Student Photo ID Card. This card is required for some things on campus, such as riding the shuttle and access to the fitness room. It can also be used as a library card.
In order to receive an ID Card, you must be enrolled for the current or upcoming term as a Credit student.
Prior to Semester
Beginning one week prior to the start of the semester, an ID Card station will be set up in the Houff Student Center cafeteria area to issue ID cards and parking permits. Please have your EMPLID (student number) and a valid government issued photo ID or driver’s license with you. For parking permits, you will also need the license plate number, make, model, color, and year of vehicle.
