Your DalCard serves as your student ID, swipe card room access, transit pass and debit card.

Complete these steps ASAP (IN ORDER) when you arrive on campus:

1. Visit the DalCard office: Have your photo taken and pick up your card. Online photo submission is available until August 27th.
2. *IMPORTANT* Request to have your BASIS account activated: Ask the DalCard office to do this for you. Step 3 CANNOT be completed until this is done.
3. Request swipe card access to the SIM Common Room (Rowe 4034): Email Kim (sim@dal.ca). She will grant and confirm access.
