GVSU ID Cards
 
During the summer orientation program, first-year students are issued a Grand Valley State University Identification Card. This card has the student's picture and G-number on the front. The back has a magnetic strip and meal plan bar code. The student will use this ID card for their entire time spent at the University. This card is also used for the following:
 
« To check out library books
« Admission to the Recreation Center
« ID for University bus service (The RAPID)
« ID for check cashing on-campus
 
Should a student need a replacement card they are asked to visit the cashier windows on the first floor of the Student Services Building in Allendale. There is a minimal replacement fee.
 
Keys
 
During check-in, each student in the first-year living centers are issued a brass key that will allow them access to their unit’s door and to the mailbox for their unit. Each student will also be issued a swipe card that will allow them access to the front door of their respective building. Should a student lose or damage either key they should report this to their hall staff immediately so that a loaner key can be issued and new keys ordered. Students are billed for both via their student account.
 
Laundry
 
Each living center has a laundry room with multiple washers and dryers. The washers and dryers are operated by swipe cards, separate from the GVSU ID Card. Students no longer need quarters to operate the machines, they must however provide their own detergent, softener, etc. For safety and security, it is suggested that students stay with their laundry until completion.
