HawkCard Office

For Students

The HawkCard is your official University ID card at UW-Whitewater, provided to you for the duration of your enrollment at UW-Whitewater and serves as proof of association with the University. Some departments use the HawkCard as a means to grant access to their information and services. For example, the Library, as well as the University Bookstore, use the HawkCard to allow you to check out your books. It is also used by Dining Services to access your meal plan. The HawkCard is a necessity of every day campus life, so please, remember to carry your HawkCard with you at all times.

Please take the time to look through the HawkCard FAQ page and Purple Point FAQ page to familiarize yourself with policies and common questions regarding your HawkCard and Purple Point account. If you should happen to lose or damage your HawkCard, you can get another one from the HawkCard Office located in the University Center on the second floor in room 245. Replacement cards are $25 for residence hall students and $15 for off-campus/commuter students.
