Getting Your USCard

All USC Summer Programs participants are required to apply for a USCard by Tuesday, June 16, 2026. Please note that participants cannot apply for their USCard until May.

The USCard will serve the following functions:

  • Primary form of identification
  • Access to campus facilities — it is the only way to access classrooms, your residence and the dining hall. Residential participants’ meal plans are also programmed to the card.

Reminders:

  • We will pick up your card from the USCard office and give it to you when you check in
  • All participants must apply for a USCard by June 16, 2026
  • Instructions for applying for the USCard will be emailed to participants
