It's an all-in-one identification card with multiple uses and benefits beyond the average ID. All current DePaul students, faculty, and staff are eligible for the mobile Blue Demon Card. You are encouraged to follow the steps below and add the mobile credential to your phone. You also have the option to obtain a physical card, although a physical card is no longer required.

Optional Physical Blue Demon Card

New students and employees can also stop into the Blue Demon Card offices anytime after their scheduled orientation or onboarding date. Transfer students who have enrolled in classes can stop into the Blue Demon Card offices during regular business hours. One form of photo identification is required at the time of pick-up. Learn more about office locations and hours, which may vary based on the academic calendar.

Although the Blue Demon Card on your mobile device works at card readers all around university campuses, DePaul students, faculty, or staff members may still want a physical Blue Demon Card. The first step in obtaining a card is to submit a photo online based on profile photo guidelines. You can then visit a Blue Demon Card office to request a physical card during office hours.
