Campus Access and Security Systems (CASS) provides students with either the HofstraCard (physical ID card) or HofPass (mobile credentials) that is needed to access residence halls, academic spaces, and other campus locations (Fitness Center, Hammer Lab, etc.). Both forms of ID also allow students to access their Dining Dollars. CASS is in the process of deploying mobile credentials (HofPass) that will allow students to use an app on their cellphone or watch for easier access to services.
Commuting students can use a hang tag sleeve to display their permit from their rearview mirror; hang tag sleeves are available at the Department of Public Safety and other locations such as Campus Access and Security Systems
