Starting July 1, the price for new UGACards will be $15. The higher cost reflects an updated card-production system, which creates higher quality cards with new security features that should make counterfeiting cards more difficult.
Along with the regular cards, the cost of department-specific ID badges will be increased to $10 and cards with proximity chips will rise to $20. Current cardholders do not need to purchase new cards, current ones will continue to function.
