Obtaining An Auburn University ID

Employee ID Card Services (EICS) requires U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents (LPR) to provide a valid government issued photo ID such as a driver's license, passport or military ID. 

Foreign nationals should call EICS at 334-844-4386 to ensure they have been approved by the appropriate Auburn University office(s) to receive AU credentials. In addition, all AU-sponsored foreign nationals must first go to the Office of International Programs (OIP) prior to coming to the EICS office. EICS will not be able to process any foreign national without proper authorization. 

Faculty and staff may receive their ID by visiting the Onboarding Center, located at 1530 East Glenn Ave. Our hours of operation are Monday-Friday, 7:45 a.m. - 4:45 p.m. This office will be closed on all official Auburn University holidays.
