Graduate Students

Card Issuance

For most graduate students, your Irish1Card will be ready before you arrive on campus. Incoming students will receive communication about the photo submission step from their programs. You must have an active NetID in order to submit a photo. 

Access

The building/facility access you'll need gets automatically assigned to your Irish1Card. Examples include RecSports facilities and Hesburgh Library access. A Personal Identification Number (PIN) is required along with your Irish1Card when accessing some of the restricted areas. The 4-digit PIN is automatically assigned once your Irish1Card is created. Please click here to view or change your PIN and be sure to keep it confidential! Note: To access the PIN page you must be using restricted campus WiFi (eduroam), or be logged into the VPN. Take good care of your Irish1Card and should you lose it, report it "lost" right away. If you have questions contact the Campus Card Office.  

Dining

Graduate students are able to purchase meal plans for use at campus dining halls and retail locations. Information on available dining plans can be found here.  You can check to see the balance of an active meal plan at get.nd.edu.

Purchasing

Your Irish1Card can be used for making purchases both on and off-campus. The two types of accounts students use are Flex Points and Domer Dollars. Flex Points are loaded onto your Irish1Card as part of a meal plan and can be used at Campus Dining locations. Domer Dollars is a convenient campus debit account, which allows funds to be added to your Irish1Card via a credit/debit card. Once added, Domer Dollars can be used to make purchases at all campus retail locations and select off-campus locations. More information on Domer Dollars can be found here. You can check the balance of these accounts, or view transaction history by logging-in at get.nd.edu.     

Events

There are many campus events that require verification of your Irish1Card for entry. You should always be ready to provide your Irish1Card for verification, so it's best to have your Irish1Card with you at all times.

Transportation

The South Bend Bus service (Transpo) is available for free with an active Irish1Card.
