Physical ID Card
As we transition towards a more modern approach, the university has moved from physical ID cards to mandatory mobile ID cards (the mobile Blue Demon Card). Physical cards will no longer be printed except for the following special cases:
- Students or Staff who have lost or had their phone stolen and do not have a replacement
- International students without USA compliant phones
- Students or employees who do not own a smartphone
- Nursing and teaching student cohorts that require physical cards
- Retirees
- Friends of DePaul
- Alumni ID cards
Printing a physical ID card requires approval. Students or employees seeking special accommodations for a physical Blue Demon ID card need to fill out a request form. Once the request has been reviewed, you will be notified if your accommodation was approved or not. Please check back to this page for a link to the request form very soon.
Demon Express
Demon Express is a prepaid debit account that is offered to current students, faculty and staff of DePaul University. The account is linked to your Blue Demon Card.
U-Pass
Your Ventra U-Pass provides unlimited rides on CTA buses and trains during the Autumn, Winter, Spring, and Summer Quarters.
Door Access
Certain offices, computer labs, buildings, and residence halls on campus have restricted access. These door locks are controlled by a swipe card access system.
Card Readers
Card reader equipment is available for several purposes: security readers for door access, photocopy readers and point-of-sale readers.
