Online/Distance Learning Students

Please submit your photo online or email us at pcard@21333b.com if possible, as these methods are the fastest and easiest way of receiving your card. ID Cards can still be mailed if photos are submitted digitally. Graduate students enrolled in an online or distance learning program may download and print a Pioneer ID Card Request form. Simply complete the form, attach a photo, and mail it in. Please use this form ONLY if you are an online or distance learning student and are currently enrolled. If you submit the form as any other type of student your card will not be mailed, nor will the form and picture be returned to you. Once your paperwork is processed, we will mail your Pioneer ID Card to the current mailing address on your DU records.
