Your Fully Mobile OWLcard
The OWLcard is Temple University's ID card. Your OWLcard allows you to do just about everything: access campus buildings, buy a meal as part of your university meal plan or at any of the 100+ vendors who partner with Temple's Diamond Dollars program.
New Students
If you are an incoming freshman or transfer student, you must submit a photo electronically as part of your Next Steps process on TUportal. Please read the following instructions about proper photo submission. If you require a physical OWLcard, you must make an appointment to visit the OWLcard Office. You will need your TUid# (9 digits beginning with a 9) and a government issued photo ID (driver's license, passport, military ID).
