Getting your AC Card and U-Pass

To get your AC Card and/or a U-Pass for the Spring Term, you are required to submit a photo online. Card Services does not take photos in person. 

Your network username and password will allow you to log into the AC Photo portal and upload a photo. You can find your network username and password on ACSIS (Algonquin College Student Information System).

Note – If your network account credentials are not available on ACSIS, please contact the Registrar’s Office.

Once your photo is approved, you will receive an email to book a pick-up appointment.

New Spring U-Passes are valid beginning May 1, 2024.
