Upload Your Photo

Got a selfie you love? Upload it to your ONEcard.

Upload your photo

Upload your photo by August 17 to ensure that it is ready for the Fall distribution event from August 22–September 5. If you upload after this date, you will receive an email from the ONEcard office confirming a pickup date and location when your ONEcard is ready for pickup (usually three days after approval).

HOW TO UPLOAD A PHOTO

  1. Upload your photo that follows the requirements below. If you have trouble with this on your desktop computer, try using your phone instead.
  2. You will also need to upload a close-up photo of either:
    1. one piece of government-issued photo identification (must include first and last name)
    2. two pieces of government-issued non-photo identification (take a single image containing both pieces of identification).
  3. When your card is ready for pickup, you will receive an email to your U of A email address confirming a date and location for picking up your ONEcard (usually three days after approval).

Once a photo is submitted, it is sent for printing and you are not able to upload a new one. If you wish to update your photo and reprint your card after distribution, you can certainly do this. There is a $15 fee to exchange your card and reprint it. Contact us so your image can be removed before uploading a new one.
