The first ID card is free of cost, however replacements incur a $25 charge that will be added to your student account.

The Hamline Public Safety office also grants proxy card access across campus. Use the card access request Google Form if you are a supervisor or professor and want to request card access for a Hamline affiliate's ID card.

Replacement keys and door re-cores

Campus safety is a shared responsibility, and maintaining the security of university facilities is essential to fostering a safe environment for all.

As a keyholder, you are responsible for safeguarding your keys and ensuring controlled access to your designated spaces.

Losing or misplacing your keys compromises security and may require re-keying to maintain campus safety. If you lose your keys, you will be responsible for a $25 replacement fee. If a temporary door re-core has to be completed after hours to ensure access to your room before replacement keys can be made, you will be responsible for a $65 re-core fee.

Lost and found

If you lose anything, stop by the Public Safety office to see if it has been turned in. If you find anything that has been lost, please bring it to us.
