Card access control

To enter areas for which you have the authorized, hold your card to the reader. The smart card reader's light will turn from red to green, signifying access has been granted and the door will unlock.
If you experience door access issues, contact:
Service Center – Students.
ServiceNow – Staff.
To add or change authorization permissions, contact your department segment manager. View the segment manager and building contact sheet to determine your proper contact.
