Door access is on a need-to-have basis

Departments may arrange access through the CATcard office for their own personnel & graduate students. Vendor badges may be activated for limited access at contracting department request. Undergraduates may hold temporary accesses assigned through CATcard, including residence hall access and specially defined accesses determined by course enrollment or other institutional privilege.

This is an optional plan that allows the user to deposit funds into a debit account on their CATcard. All classifications are allowed this option, but vendor and Sodexo cards must be specifically requested to have this feature. Also, deposits to these two card classes must be made in the CATcard office.
