Jacket Express Card
- Your Campus ID and Much More
-
The Jacket Express Card is your official form of identification and an essential part of campus life. It should be carried at all times and presented upon request to any University official.
The Jacket Express Card is your key to campus-wide privileges. It provides security and ease of use. It is used to access many campus facilities, including residence halls, the recreation center and library. It can be used for meals, books and numerous other items on campus, and allows admittance to campus events and activities.
The Jacket Express Card is available as a plastic card or as a credential in your mobile wallet on your smart phone.
- Where to Obtain your Jacket Express Card
-
Every registered student is assigned a Jacket Express Card prior to starting classes. Campus Access Services will provide you with instructions for receiving your card.
A signature and valid photo ID (i.e., driver's license) is required for a Jacket Express Card.
If you lose your Jacket Express Card, visit Campus Access Services to obtain a replacement card. A fee will be charged for a lost card replacement. All lost cards become inactive at the time of replacement and cannot be reused.
- Jacket Pay & Using the GET App
-
- Your Jacket Express card may have multiple types of accounts including: a meal plan, Dining Flex dollars and Jacket Pay.
- Resident students will automatically have a meal plan which includes Dining Flex dollars.
- You have the option to add funds to your Jacket Pay account, by using a debit or credit card.
- Visit the GET portal or install the GET app for Apple or Android.
- You can also request funds by sending an email, through the GET portal or app, to "Trusted Depositors" who have access to add funds to your accounts. To grant depositing access you will need to add their information into the system.
- All funds added to the Jacket Pay account carry over from year to year. This means that they will remain on your account until you graduate or withdraw from BW, and at that time, any remaining balance on your account is nonrefundable.
- Terms and Conditions
-
A Jacket Express Card account is available to each registered student. The card is the property of Baldwin Wallace University and has been issued for the card holder's use only. Proper identification and signature are required to obtain a card. The card is non-transferable. Lending the card to anyone or possessing another person's card is a violation of University regulations and will result in confiscation of the card and possible loss of privileges.
The University is not responsible for any loss, theft or misuse of the card. A fee will be charged for the replacement of a lost or stolen card. Cash withdrawals from a Jacket Express account will not be permitted. The Jacket Express account cannot be used for dues, fees or memberships.
A Jacket Express account is not transferable, and the card must be presented in person. Additional identification or signature may be required for certain purchases or account adjustments. The card holder is responsible for any transactions that occur on the card prior to the account(s) closing.
Under normal conditions you will not be able to overdraw your Jacket Express account(s). If under certain unusual circumstances, an insufficient balance condition might occur and the condition is not cleared, the insufficient balance amount will be billed to the card holder's BW student billing account.
The University will disclose information to third parties about the account holder's account or the transfer made only: (1) to comply with court orders or other applicable laws, or (2) if the account holder gives written permission.
The card holder is responsible for deactivating their lost or stolen card by going to myjecard.bw.edu and may be responsible for transactions that occurred prior to deactivating their card.
The terms of this agreement commence when the card has been issued and account(s) have been activated. The card and account(s) will expire upon termination of enrollment. The University has the right to stop card activity for financial or academic resolution.
Jacket Express account holders may request, between August 1 and July 31 of the current academic year, a printed statement of transactions by going to Campus Access Services in Strosacker Hall (Student Union).
