Card Access

OVERVIEW

A significant aspect of the USF One Card and Campus Security Systems' suite of services is card access. This includes use of the USF One Card as a "key card" to unlock doors, and the automated locking and unlocking of doors throughout campus.

Current USF cardholders may use their USF One Card as a "key card" to unlock and gain access into University buildings and facilities.

If you lose or misplace your USF One Card, it is imperative that you call and have it deactivated to prevent unauthorized use. For more information about deactivating or replacing a lost USF One Card, refer to the Lost Cards & Replacement Cards page.

 

 

 

HOW DO I OBTAIN CARD ACCESS?

Access is determined by existing access policy or by supervisor authorization; therefore, card access varies from person to person. Below are some helpful terms for those requesting card access:

Default Access: All current USF students and employees have access to certain locations on campus

Association Access: In addition to default access, additional access can be placed on a cardholder's account based upon their association with certain access points on campus (such as their residence hall or school)

Manager Approval: To obtain access above and beyond default access and association access, manager (or supervisor) approval is required. The manager is the "person responsible for the area/group" to which the cardholder needs access. The approval process entails that a manager submits a request via the Access Request Form. The use of the Access Request Form allows One Card and Campus Security Systems personnel to grant access in a timely and accurate manner, and maintain accountability while doing so

Access Modification: In addition to granting access to cardholders, managers also may need to modify access. Modifications include adding/removing access points and extending/shortening access periods. The modification process requires that a manager submits a request via the Access Request Form
