These two newest in house-developed Campus Card applications, implemented late November, have been very successful.

Campus Card payments for parking (the number one request in a recent Campus Card survey) is now offered at 32 Pay and Display terminals.

Students off campus can now use their Campus Card to pay for Video on Demand and are no longer subjected to a minimum charge, as was the case when paying on their VISA/Mastercard for access to remote class video.
