What is the C-Card?
The Convenience Card is your HSU student, faculty, or staff ID card. You may activate your ID card to serve as a debit account by making an initial deposit to the card. Your card may then be used for purchases at any participating campus location. Deposits are easily made by phone, in person at the Housing and Dining Office or the HSU Bookstore, by mail, or online.
Using the C-Card is Easy
The C-Card can be used to purchase food, textbooks, clothing, event tickets, supplies, and more without having to carry cash. Once you activate your C-Card account, all purchases made with the C-Card will be automatically deducted from your account balance. To check your current balance, simply ask at any participating location or click here.
