Rush students are required to wear their student IDs at all times while on campus. Students not wearing a valid student ID card could be asked to leave the University or Medical Center and related clinical sites. A valid student ID card is needed to access and use the library, laboratories, bookstore and student lounge, and is required for admission to some school events.
The student ID card is valid only while a student is enrolled at Rush University and is immediately deactivated upon graduation, withdrawal or dismissal. Students must return their ID cards to the Office of the Registrar upon separation from the University.
Temporary ID badges are available in the event that authorized personnel have forgotten their original IDs. Students may obtain a temporary ID sticker from the Security Office. The temporary ID represents your original ID. If either is lost, there is a $10 replacement fee. If the ID card is damaged or stolen, the replacement fee will not be assessed if either the damaged ID card or a copy of a police report is received by the Security Office.

Lockers will be assigned at orientation based on availability. Students are assigned the same locker until graduation, and often share a locker with another Rush student. In the event that students share lockers, first priority is given to assigning students within the same program and ideally the same cohort, with second priority being assigned with someone from the same college. Rush University assumes no responsibility for the loss of personal property from lockers. If any difficulties with a locker arise, contact the Office of Student Life and Engagement.
