Your NTC Student ID badge is your official college identification. It is recognized as a valid form of ID and can be used for voter registration purposes.

Why do I need it?

Use your Student ID to access:

  • Campus events, activities and giveaways
  • Coed Recreational Sports at NTC and at UW-Stevens Point at Wausau (formerly UW-Marathon County or UWMC)
  • Discounted products and services (listed at the bottom of the page)
  • Health services
  • Library resources including headphones, cell phone chargers, laptops and accessories, audiobooks and more
  • FollowMe Printing services
  • Some programs use honor lock for exams. A student ID can be used for this purpose. You may also use another valid photo ID in place.

Where/when can I obtain one?

Visit the Campus Store + Student Life at the Wausau campus or the front desk of your preferred regional campus with:

  • your current class schedule (either printed or pulled up in Workday), and
  • a valid form of photo identification (e.g. previous student ID, driver’s license, state-issued ID, passport, etc.).

At the Wausau campus, your ID will be ready in about two minutes. Regional campus processing is typically five to seven days.

  • Fall IDs: available Monday of the week including August 1
  • Spring IDs: available first business Monday in January
  • Summer IDs: available Tuesday after Memorial Day

Please note NTC student IDs follow regulations to be voter ID compliant. For this reason online or remote ID requests are not available. All requests must be processed at an in-person NTC campus. Thank you.

Why does my ID have a sticker?

Wausau and regional campus student IDs have a semester sticker identifying current semester of enrollment. Each semester, stop by the Campus Store + Student Life or your regional campus to get a new “semester sticker” identifying your status as a current student. Be sure to bring your current semester schedule.

Does my ID expire?

Students IDs are typically good for two years. You’ll notice an expiration date at the bottom of it. If your ID is expired, bring it to the Campus Store + Student Life or your regional campus (with a copy of your current schedule) to have a new one created at no charge.

What if my ID is lost?

Misplaced cards can be replaced for $20.

What is FollowMe printing?

FollowMe printing allows you to print your document, copy, and scan from any copier on campus without having to remember the individual copier names. Just print to FollowMe and it will be available to you on any copier. You can also use FollowMe to scan to your email or your OneDrive. It’s fast, easy, and secure!

First-Time Badge Setup: The first time you use your ID on the copier, you will need to perform a one-time setup. Simply swipe your ID on the copier’s card reader, enter your NTC student email and password, and press ‘Associate.’ Then swipe your ID again and you’re in!

Print Release: When you print a document, it will be held on the print server until you release it at any NTC campus copier using your ID or NTC student email and password.

Print Job Duration: Print jobs are held for a maximum of 6 days.

How to find FollowMe: All NTC laptops and desktops will have FollowMe as their default print option. If you want to bring your own device, you can install FollowMe by following the steps above the copier, or going to mobileprint.ntc.edu and installing the FollowMe printers. If you need help, reach out to our help desk staff in the Library!
