My NCard is the Only Card I Need at UNL

What Does My NCard Do?

The NCard is designed to be your permanent University of Nebraska-Lincoln photo identification card. It will be valid as long as you are affiliated with UNL. The NCard system is campus-wide and is used by campus departments and offices for identification, access, and optional services.

  • The NCard should be carried when on UNL property and must be presented upon request.
  • Misuse of the NCard may result in disciplinary action and/or confiscation of the NCard.
  • Under the Student Code of Conduct, "it shall be an act of misconduct to loan, transfer, or alter the student NCard."

What Does My NCard Get Me Access To?

The following are units that use the NCard for identification and access. You do not have to apply for any other service to use them. NOTE: This does not include making purchases!


How Do I Make Purchases With My NCard?

Once you obtain an NCard you are eligible to apply for either of the following services:

Campus Account

As a registered student or faculty/staff member at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, you may open an NCard Campus Account. Charges made to your NCard appear on your Student Accounts Consolidated Bill if you are a student or appear as a payroll deduction for faculty and staff. The NCard Campus Account may be used for purchases from the following vendors:

Wells Fargo Campus Connection℠ Program

UNL has partnered with Wells Fargo Bank to allow students, faculty, and staff to link their NCard to a Wells Fargo checking account. This enables the NCard to be used to make purchases using your personal identification number (PIN) off-campus at participating merchants. The card can also be used to access cash at Wells Fargo ATMs at no charge.

What is the difference between the NCard Campus Account and the Wells Fargo Account?

NCard Campus Account
→ Purchases made using an NCard with an activated NCard Campus Account appear on a student's Consolidated Bill.

Wells Fargo Account
→ If you elect to add the Wells Fargo account feature and have the card linked at a Wells Fargo Bank, the NCard will become a PIN-based debit card, requiring a balance in a Wells Fargo bank account to cover the purchases. It is not a credit card.
