Student Identification Cards
Students enrolled in Curriculum and eligible Continuing Education courses are offered student identification (ID) cards through the Student Services Office. Students seeking a college-issued ID should be prepared to provide government-issued proof of identification, such as a valid driver’s license.
Students are responsible for any additional expenses associated with the verification of student identity. Free “No-Fee IDs” can be obtained from any DMV office in North Carolina. Also, the county board of elections offices will issue voter photo identification cards for free upon request. North Carolina residents may visit their county board of elections office to request a card. For current information regarding fees associated with the issuance of other state identification cards, students should visit www.dmv.org.
Students are strongly encouraged to memorize the student identification number that is listed on their card as it is frequently requested across campus by advisors and staff from Student Services, the Advising and Success Center, the Bookstore, the Library, and the Business Office. Please note that this number is to be used in lieu of a social security number, as it is more secure.
Please note the following:
This official student ID card should be carried by the student at all times on the college campus.
The card must be presented when requested by College officials or at College activities on and off the College’s premises.
The card is not transferable to any other person.
The card may not be altered in any way.
This card is the property of Isothermal Community College. If found, please return to Student Services in room 7 of the Student Center.
ID cards are made by the Student Services staff after a student has registered for courses for the current or following semester.
The ID card provides benefits for students including, but not limited to:
Free admission to some activities sponsored by the College
Access to the gym during open hours
Discounts at some local stores, restaurants, and Isothermal Community College Cosmetology and Massage Services
Limited discounts and access to programming at Gardner Webb University
As of 2023, photo IDs are required when voting in North Carolina. Valid Isothermal Community College Student IDs are recognized by the North Carolina State Board of Elections as approved forms of photo identification. Students should check their student ID expiration date. If enrolled and a new ID is needed, students may request a replacement through Student Services, free of charge.
