W&M Tribe Card

Connecting campus through a one card system.

Your Tribe Card is the official form of university identification for students, faculty and staff and an essential part of your life here on campus. A Tribe Card is your (literal) key to campus.

From door access to meal plans or attendance verification, your Tribe Card will open doors for you at William & Mary. It serves as your meal plan card, library card, and facility access card to residence halls, Student Recreation Center, the Student Health Center, academic buildings, campus bus transportation and athletic events. Learn where to use your card on campus and beyond on our website.

Submit a photo by July 31 to receive your Tribe card at Orientation!
The online submission process is mandatory and open! To receive a Tribe card, both your Tribe Card Photo and Photo ID must be submitted through the portal for Identity Verification. If your photo is accepted and identity verified, your card will be available for pick-up during your orientation program. 
Review the photo submission requirements to ensure photo backgrounds and framing meet the guidelines. Submit only original photos - no scans or copies of pre-existing identification including your driver's license or school id photo will be accepted.
Tribe Cards Display Preferred Name

Your Tribe Card will display the Preferred/Chosen Name provided to the university through the Admission process or submitted within your Personal Information Questionnaire (PIQ), whichever is most recent. If you prefer to have your Legal First Name displayed on your Tribe Card, do not enter a Preferred Name - or - remove that information from the Preferred Name box within your PIQ.

Pick Up Your Tribe Card

New Student Tribe Cards will be delivered during New Student Orientation, or during your Pre-Orientation Program. New undergraduate student cards are not available prior to the orientation program.
