Mobile ID

Welcome to the Purdue Community!

Whether you’re part of West Lafayette, Purdue Online, Polytechnic, or Purdue in Indianapolis, your Purdue Mobile ID is your official form of identification.

As a Mobile First community, all incoming students will receive a Purdue Mobile ID as their primary identification. Faculty, staff, and visiting scholars are also eligible for a Purdue Mobile ID, providing easy access and added convenience.

Important: Your photo must be submitted and approved before you can download your Purdue Mobile ID. All communications are sent to your Purdue email. Photo approval and denial emails are sent automatically once your photo has been reviewed by our team.

Office staff review photos during business hours; Monday – Friday; 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. (Est).
