Campus-Wide ID Frequently Asked Questions: Students
Q: Why do I have a new ID number?
A: As a result of heightened awareness about identify theft,
the California legislature has passed several new laws requiring
that universities use an assigned id number to identify students.
Q: What is the format of the new campus-wide-ID number?
A: The new campus-wide-ID number is a 9-digit number beginning
with "8".
Q: Does the campus still require me to provide my social
security number?
A: Yes. There are still many processes including financial
aid and tax reporting that require the campus to know and store
your social security number.
Q: Can I still use my old student ID number (usually SSN)
to access the Student Portal and TITAN Online and telephone registration?
A: Yes. The Student Portal, TITAN Online and telephone registration
will allow you to sign-on using either your old student ID number
or your new campus-wide-ID number in conjunction with your PIN.
Q: How can I find out the value of my new campus-wide-ID
number?
A: There are several ways to do this. After signing on to
the Student Portal or TITAN Online, your new campus-wide-ID number
will be displayed. We encourage you to memorize this number and
begin using it right away instead of your old student ID number.
Q: Are there any other ways to learn my new campus-wide-ID
number?
A: Yes. A new webpage is available at https://campusapps.fullerton.edu/CWID/index.aspx
where you can supply your old student ID number and last name and
you will be told your new campus-wide-ID number.
Q: Are there times when I cannot use my new campus-wide-ID
number?
A: Yes. For the time being, access to telephone fee payment
will continue to only accept your old student ID number.
Q: Will I need a new Titan Card?
A: No. Your Titan Card only contains a 16-digit ISO number
and has never contained your Student ID number.
Q: When I take tests in my classes, sometimes I am required
to supply a special form to bubble-in my answers. That form requires
me to enter my student ID number. What number do I enter now that
the campus is using this new ID number?
A: You should begin using your new campus-assigned campus-wide
ID number on these forms although you may continue to use your previous
student ID number if you cannot remember your campus-wide ID number
for some period of time.
Q: Who should I contact if I have more questions about my
campus-wide ID number?
A: Contact Admissions & Records at (714) 278-7601.
