Get your Columbia University ID: CUIT has developed a secure web service for students to upload and submit a photo online for their first University ID card. Find out how to submit your photo.(link is external) If you submit your photo by May 15 for part­-time students and July 26 for full­-time students, you will receive your University ID card during your student orientation. For those who miss the deadline, you will have time during orientation to go to 204 Kent Hall to get your Columbia University ID card.

IMPORTANT: In order to get your Columbia University ID card or purchase a Journalism School Press Pass, you will need to take two high resolution digital passport-­style photos as soon as possible.

  • The photo should be a color JPEG file.
  • The background should be uniform and light­-colored.
  • You must be facing forward with your head and shoulders clearly visible.
  • No photos with sunglasses or hats.
  • The file cannot exceed 100K in size for the Columbia University ID card and must be 300 dpi for the Journalism School Press Pass.

  1. Hello.

    I was trying to upload my ID photo, but I encountered the following message:
    “You do not have the required permissions to submit a photo using this application.”

    I would appreciate your assistance.

    Thank you
