If I'm a fully online or part-time student, can I get a FANCard?
Yes. Upload your photo using MyPhoto and follow the steps above. Cards must be picked up in-person at one of Fanshawe's locations. The card will be available in the FANCard Office (E2020, London Campus) unless a request is made for the card to be shipped to another campus location. The Digital ID of the card will be available at fancard.fanshawec.ca as soon as the physical card is ready.
All students should upload their photo even if they do not wish to request a FANCard. Your photo is used for class rosters and helps staff and faculty get to know you, especially during these times of increased virtual learning and student services.
Is there a digital version of the FANCard?
A new digital I.D is now available. The digital I.D. can be used as proof of student status only for things such as a student discount at grocery stores, restaurants etc. At the discretion of faculty and staff, the digital I.D. may also be used as Fanshawe identification for online tests and exams.
The digital I.D. cannot be used to access the bus, for door access or on campus purchases. Your digital I.D. can be accessed at fancard.fanshawec.ca. If you experience issues viewing the digital I.D., please use another browser and clear your internet cache. For further issues, email cards@fanshawec.ca.
