Order In Person or Online
The Bengal ID provides students with many benefits. There is no cost for your first Bengal ID. You may order it in person at the Pocatello, Idaho Falls, and Meridian campuses. Your ID is available on the first day of the month that semester classes begin (August 1, January 1, May 1). We encourage you to order your card online for faster service.
