I'm a Student
All students at the University are required to have CATcard. NEW THIS YEAR, a plastic CATcard will not be automatically printed. In an effort to be more environmentally friendly we are requiring students to utilize a DIGITAL CATcard credential. UVM was one of the first schools in the country to allow the university ID to be stored in the Apple Wallet or GPAY Wallet. We are a one-card/credential campus — all campus amenities are serviced via the one UVM CATcard. This card/credential provides you access to your privileges, meal plans, door access and the UVM debit account known as CAT$cratch. If for some reason you have difficulty installing/utilizing the mobile credential please reach out to us at CATCARD@uvm.edu, or call us during business hours at 802-656-4509.
