DePauw ID Card: Uploading a photo

To upload a photo for your DePauw ID card, you will need to:

Understand the photo requirements

Your photo must be similar to a passport-style photo and follow similar requirements as those listed on the U.S. Passports & International Travel Passport Photo Requirements Web page. It should look similar to the following:

Image of passport-style photo

  • Color photo taken within last six (6) months
  • Plain white background only
  • Full-face view directly facing the camera
  • No senior pictures or posing allowed. This is not a glamour shot, it is a legal photo for identification purposes.

 

Warning:

Photos that do not meet passport-style requirements will be rejected.

Edit your photo

Now that you have a photo that meets the photo requirements, you will need to edit it so that it can be uploaded to our vendor’s system (i.e., GET). The photo you upload must be:

  • In JPEG (.jpg) format
  • No larger than 1 MB
  • Default viewable size of 225 X 150

Most cell phones have photo editing capabilities; however, other options available to you include GIMP, Google Photo, the Photo Tool found on the U.S. Passports & International Travel Passport Photo Requirements Web page, or numerous other free resources available through a Web search.

Create a GET account

GET is the system that enables you to upload a photo that may be used for your DePauw ID card if it meets the photo requirements as noted above. GET is also the system that you will use to manage your Tiger Express account, meal plan, locate participating out-in-town restaurants, and much more.
