The guest identification card (ID) is available for those who do not have student or employee status at WashU and are not entered in the Workday. Guests of the university (visiting professors, campus ministers, etc.) who will be on campus for an extended period of time should obtain a guest ID to maintain campus security.

The university requires the following information before an ID can be produced:  

  • Authorization from the department sponsor confirming that the guest should receive an ID. 
  • Brief explanation of the guest’s activity on campus/need for a guest ID. 
  • An expiration date (within one year) that the guest ID is valid. 
  • Building access needed.
