Get the Card!

The ECU 1 Card is the official photo ID card for East Carolina University. All students, staff, and faculty need this card whenever they are asked to show university identification. The ECU 1 Card is worn as an ID badge at the Brody School of Medicine. While the ECU 1 Card is required for identification purposes, other accounts linked to the card are optional.

Where do I go?

The main ECU 1 Card Office is located on the ground floor of the Old Cafeteria Complex, Room G-521. At Brody, the 1 Card may be obtained at the Brody Medical Sciences Building, GE-101 after the appropriate paperwork has been completed. All non med-students must have their 1 Cards made at the main campus location, regardless of class locations.  We currently are unable to make student cards at the Brody location.

What do I need to bring?

You MUST present a valid picture ID card to get an ECU 1 Card. Acceptable forms of ID include a valid driver's license, state-issued ID card, military ID, or passport. An ECU ID number is needed to make your 1 Card. You can find your ECU ID number under the "Profile" tab on your OneStop web page, or look under "What is my ECU (Banner) ID? on the "tools" page.

There is a $10 fee for the first card. Cash or check only. No credit or debit cards are accepted.
