Spouse ID Cards

ID cards for spouses of graduate students are now available. The default privileges associated with spouse ID cards at this time include:

  • Access to Student Activity events, such as pep rallies, or student-only events at Legends

  • Rec Sports facility entry

  • Library access

  • Domer Dollar access (including the ability to purchase dining hall meal plans)

Other departments/ programs may choose to extend privileges and access rights to student spouses in the future. If your spouse already has an ID card at Notre Dame (as a student or employee), then a separate spouse card will not be issued. For your spouse to be eligible for an ID card, you must be an active, degree-seeking student.

To obtain an ID card for your spouse, IF you have not already done so, please do the following:

  1. Complete the request form.

  2. After completing the form, please visit the Office of Graduate Studies (502 Main Building) where you will submit the completed form and provide proof of marriage. Domestic students will be asked to provide an original marriage certificate and international students will be asked to provide either an I-20 or DS-2019.

  3. After marriage verification, your spouse’s name will be entered into the Notre Dame system. Once the name is entered, your spouse will receive an email with his/her identification number and instructions. Please allow up to three business days for the delivery of this email.

If you have any questions about this process, please direct them to Rae Zavor at rzavor@nd.edu.
