A OneCard is issued to all enrolled program students. You are required to pick up your ID card during your first year of attendance. You will need to carry this card with you all the time. It is used for such things as participation in student activities, access to buildings, final examinations, and as proof that you are a Ryerson student. DON'T LOSE, DAMAGE OR CHANGE YOUR ONECARD! Replacement of your OneCard for any reason such as lost cards, holes punched, damaged cards, changes to your OneCards etc., cost $30 (subject to change). Name changes cost $10 (subject to change).

The Ryerson OneCard is more than just an ID card. The magnetic strip on the back of the card can be used to purchase a variety of services across the campus. See the Ryerson OneCard under "The Campus", section, visit our web page for more details.
