Net ID, I-Number, & I-Card
Q: What is a Net ID?

computers. The Net ID provides increased security as well as greater access to CES resources.
You must obtain a Net ID before an I-Number and I-Card will be available to you.
Q: What is an I-Number?
A: An I-Number is a unique identification number for each individual. This number will be
printed on your I-Card and will be used to identify yourself at various locations across campus.

materials, gain admittance to the Hart Fitness Center, cash checks on campus, obtain campus
event tickets, access the testing center, spend pre-deposited funds on campus, and print in the
computer labs.
