What Is a LuteCard?

A LuteCard is your University ID Card, your library card, your on-campus meal plan card, and even an on-campus debit card. You will need your LuteCard to access most PLU campus events, and to access the swimming pool and Names Fitness Center. You will also need it to access to your residence hall. Do you have questions about your card, or if you've lost it, how to get another? If so, read on.

Who may have a LuteCard?

All Students, Faculty, Administrators, Staff may have a LuteCard. Dependants of Faculty, Administrators, and Staff may also have LuteCards.

Faculty, Administrator, Staff LuteCard Exchange

Effective August 1, 2011 all faculty, administrators, and staff may trade-in their active LuteCards free of charge for any of the following reasons: The card is creased or cracked, the magnetic strip is worn or no longer working, the picture is old or faded, or the faculty, administrator, or staff member's name has changed. In order to qualify for the free exchange the old card must be turned in. There will still be an $8 charge for cards damaged due to carelessness or misuse.

Lost or Stolen LuteCards

Protect balances and building security -  immediately report lost & stolen cards: 

• 1) during business hours call Concierge Desk (253)535-7411 or call Campus Safety anytime at (253)535-7441; and

• 2) provide a description online at Report Lost Card.

As soon as a card is reported lost, it is turned off and no longer usable. Until the card is reported lost, card balances and buildings can be accessed by anyone.  Card holders are liable until cards are reported lost or stolen (unlike a credit card there are no liability limits). Please note there is a fee to replace lost cards.
