Campus Dining Service E.Z. Charge

All new MU students receive their first Mizzou TigerCard at no charge. To obtain a TigerCard, go to the ID Card Office, located inside the University Bookstore, in Brady Commons. Make sure you have your student number and a current driver's license, military ID card, state ID card, or passport. To ensure campus safety, it is against policy for us to issue cards unless one of these forms of identification is presented.

Using any ID card other than your own is fraud. Any ID card used by a non-owner will be confiscated immediately and offenders will be prosecuted.

Additional Information

New Card Problems

If you have obtained a new card or had your current card re-encoded, you won't be able to use it to open a residence hall exterior door or make bookstore purchases until the next morning. If your card stops working, call the ID Office at (573)882-1871 or submit a new TigerCard problem report form. We'll work with Residential Life to restore access privileges.

Lost or Damaged Card Replacement

Should your ID card become unusable or broken due to normal wear and tear, bring it to the ID Office and we'll replace it at no charge. "Normal wear and tear" is determined by ID Office staff. Protect that magstripe! Scratches will render it useless and the replacement card will cost $20.

If you lose your ID card, we'll replace it for $20. Because of the privileges associated with an MU ID, it is imperative that you report a lost card immediately by calling (573)882-1871 (882-2050 after 5 p.m. or on weekends). To protect your student charge at the bookstore, call (573)884-2159. Reporting a lost card will prevent unauthorized charges to your account.

Card Stops Working

Contact the ID Office immediately.

Student Charge Availability

Student charge options are available to full-time students who are financially enrolled during the current semester.

Break in Attendance at MU

If you were previously enrolled, and received the black TigerCard (even if you left the University for a time), we can reactivate your old ID card, electronically, once you are re-enrolled in myZou.
