Program Benefits

Program ID Card Benefits

The program ID Card is your ticket to receive all of the benefits listed below. It is an individual card and cannot be shared with another person; your picture and ID number are printed on the card.

The ID card is a lifetime card that is reactivated each year you register for the program. So, if you already have a card, bring it with you for reactivation. If you have lost your card, you may obtain another one from the USU Card Office for a replacement fee of $15 per card.
