Campus Billing and DartCard Services

McNutt Hall, Room 103
10 North Main Street
Hanover, NH 03755

Office Hours

Remote assistance is available by email or phone at (603)646-3724.

The office is available for in-person visits (masks are welcome but not required).
Monday - Friday 9:00 AM-4:00 PM (closed for lunch 12:00 PM-1:00 PM)

You must present a valid form of photo ID such as a passport or state-issued ID or Driver's License. Once a Dartmouth ID card is issued and entered into our system, reprinted ID cards do not require this verification.

Building Access

The DartCard office only prints the ID cards. The DartCard office does not have the ability to add or alter door access.

Requests for door access should be sent through the building manager for FO&M (Work Control) to address.

If the physical card is not functioning properly, please visit the DartCard office for a replacement of the malfunctioning/damaged ID card.

Employee and Non-Dartmouth Visitor Replacements

Athletic Members and Non-Dartmouth Visitors (multipurpose cardholders) who lose their ID cards are subject to a $10 replacement fee per lost card.

Obtaining a Replacement ID Card

Please bring damaged ID cards to the DartCard whenever possible. When the damaged ID card is turned in, the replacement process is simply a reprint.

Replacement for Lost or Stolen ID cards requires system changes to separate the missing ID card from the newly issued ID card.

A request for ID card replacement without having a damaged card to turn in will be treated as a replacement for a Lost or Stolen ID card.

Obtaining ID Cards

Employee Spending Accounts

The Dartmouth Card Office prints ID cards and maintains the accounts available to cardholders. The ID card accounts can be used to purchase meals or food items in the dining facilities around campus.

Employees are eligible for the following accounts:

Faculty, Staff, and Graduate Student Meal Plans

  • For information about the Faculty, Staff, and Graduate Student Meal Plans, please visit https://dining.dartmouth.edu/ or contact Dartmouth Dining for details.
  • To purchase the meal packs, use the GET website from a computer -- note: the Firefox browser is recommended. Alternately, use the GET Mobile app for the best experience:
    • Be sure to have a payment type saved to your GET user account.
    • From the website -- select the menu item "Purchase Meal Packs" to start your purchase.
    • From the GET Mobile app -- go to 'Settings' and select the menu item "Purchase meal plan" to start your purchase.
    • Note the guidance provided at the top of the new web page pertaining to the meal pack plans.
  • Refunds are available upon request within the first 30 days after original purchase. After 30 days, refunds are no longer available. 
  • Inactivity for up to one year will result in forfeiting any remaining meal balances.

Prepaid Discretionary Account

  • The Employee Prepaid Discretionary account is a declining balance account ("DBA") which begins with a zero balance, and cannot go negative.
  • The Employee Prepaid Discretionary account will remain in place until the employee leaves the College. 
  • The Employee is responsible for requesting a refund of any remaining funds before they leave the College. Once we receive notice of the employee's departure from the College, any remaining funds will be forfeit.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DARTCARD

In Case of Errors or Questions About Your Electronic Transfers

Telephone us at 603-646-3724, write us at 6132 McNutt Hall, Room 103, or email us at Dartmouth.Card@dartmouth.edu as soon as you can, if you think the information on your DartCard account on the GET app, or email receipt for deposit is wrong, or if you need more information about a transfer. We must hear from you no later than 90 days after your financial institution sent the FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared.

(1) Tell us your name and account number (if any).

(2) Describe the error or the transfer you are unsure about, and explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need more information.

(3) Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.

If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within 10 business days.

ERROR RESOLUTION PROCESS

We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account.

For errors involving new accounts, point-of-sale, or foreign-initiated transactions, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question.

We will tell you the results within 3 business days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.

Athletic Facilities Membership

Access for the Athletics Facilities is overseen by DCAD Administration, and is contingent on a membership. Alternately, single-day passes are available for purchase through DCAD. An ID card from the Dartmouth Card Office is not necessary for day passes. For more information regarding access to the gym, please contact the Athletics Facilities office.

Library Privilege

Access for the library facilities and systems is managed separately from the ID production and access system. For more information regarding access to the library, please contact the appropriate library. For other assistance, please contact the Help Desk for your department or professional school.
