OSU ID Card Provides Access

All students, whether living on or off campus, also have the OSU Card Cash plan on their ID card account. With OSU Card Cash, the ID card becomes a campus debit card for purchasing food at all campus food locations and for photocopies at Valley Library. OSU Card Cash is separate from your university revolving fund account and the resident meal plans. Just add money to it at the ID center, the Valley Library Copy Center Convenience Card machine or on the ID Center Web site, http://oregonstate.edu/fa/businessaffairs/idcenter.  

The online card office, MyCard, allows students to submit a digital photo of themselves for their initial ID card, view their OSU card balance and past card transactions; add money to their OSU Card Cash account; set up "Donors" (contributors other than themselves); and deactivate or reactivate their lost OSU ID card.

Lost ID cards should be reported immediately to protect your funds. Call the ID Center at 541-737-2493, e-mail the ID Center at id.center@oregonstate.edu, or deactivate your card online at https://MyCard.oregonstate.edu.

OSU Student ID card fees are as follows:

• Student (original card, billed with tuition) $20.
• Affiliate (spouse or domestic partner) $20.
• Card replacements $25.

Verification of Enrollment or Degree

You can do it on the Web:

• Printing a current term schedule by logging on to Student Online Services Quick Login.
• Printing a certification at no cost from the National Student Clearinghouse by accessing it through Student Online Services Quick Login.
• Printing a certification from the National Student Clearinghouse at www.studentclearinghouse.org/ and using a credit card to pay for the service.

Students requesting certification of enrollment prior to spring 2000 may obtain the information by:

• Printing an unofficial transcript by logging on to Student Online Services Quick Login.
• Ordering an official transcript by logging on to Student Online Services Quick Login or by printing and completing the Official Transcript Order Form (http://oregonstate.edu/registrar/FormsLinks.html)  and submitting it to the Registrar’s Office, B102 Kerr Administration Building, Oregon State University, Corvallis, OR 97331-2130.

Forms submitted to the Registrar’s Office are sent to the National Student Clearinghouse. The Clearinghouse will provide a certification report that comes closest to providing the information you desire. They will not complete your form. All such certifications are official and need no further institutional signatures or seals.

Only those certification requests that require information not in the possession of the National Student Clearinghouse will be handled by the Registrar’s Office. In many cases, an official transcript will meet the needs of your request. We are unable to complete agency forms.

To learn more about the National Student Clearinghouse, visit their Web site at www.studentclearinghouse.org/ or contact them at 13454 Sunrise Valley Dr., Suite 300, Herndon, VA 20171. Telephone: 703-742-4200 (8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. EST), FAX 703-742-4239, or e-mail: enrollmentverify@studentclearinghouse.org.

Loan companies, other agencies, and even parents can contact the NSC directly for enrollment verifications.

Please include your legal name, social security number, and date of birth on all correspondence as well as the mailing address of the recipient for the verification.
