Student WatCard

Incoming students, who will be on campus, must apply for their WatCard, and upload a photo for use on their physical card.

Before applying, students must have access to their UWaterloo email account. Students must also verify that their preferred name is correct in WatIAM. Failure to complete this step, will result in a $20 reprint fee, to update the name on your card.

3 easy steps:

1. Apply
2. Upload your live captured photo and supporting identification documentation
3. Pick up your WatCard in person

Students who have never had a physical WatCard should apply using the new student WatCard request form

If you have already registered for and are attending a Faculty Ready Day event in person and wish to pick up your WatCard please use the Faculty Ready Day - New student form.
