Lost or Stolen ID Cards
If your LU ID card is lost or stolen, immediately deactivate your card (Building Access, GoldPLUS, Meal Plan/Dining Dollars) by logging on the Campus Portal, My Lehigh tab, My GoldPLUS channel. If you do not have internet access, you may contact the ID Office (610.758.5843) during regular office hours (see ID Card Office Home); or, after regular office hours or on the weekend, you may contact Lehigh University Police (610.758.4200) to deactivate your card.
A replacement LU ID card may be obtained at the ID Office (see Replacement ID Cards), located in Christmas-Saucon Annex (Bldg. 14A), during regular office hours (see ID Card Office Home). A $15.00 replacement fee will be charged to your Bursar account. In the case of stolen ID cards, the replacement fee will be waived with the confirmation of, or a copy of, a police report.
If your LU ID card is found after being deactivated, but before receiving a replacement, you must personally present the ID card to the ID Office in order to reactivate it. Once a replacement card has been issued, all prior cards are no longer valid and cannot be reactivated.
If you live on campus, and your LU ID card is lost or stolen after
regular office hours or on the weekend, immediately deactivate your
card (Building Access, GoldPLUS, Meal Plan/Dining Dollars) by
logging on the Campus
Portal, My Lehigh tab, My GoldPLUS
channel. Then, contact a Gryphon via the building cell phone if you
live in a residence hall, or contact your House Manager if you live
in a fraternity or sorority. They will be able to issue you a
Temporary Access Card, which will give you building access until the
next business day. The Temporary Access Card must be returned to the
ID Office and a replacement LU ID card must be obtained (see Replacement
ID Cards) the next business day. Failure to return the
Temporary Access Card to the ID Office the next business day will
result in an additional $15.00 replacement fee charged to your
Bursar account.
