Student Photo IDs are Now MOBILE
Students can upload a photo of themselves for a new mobile NWTC student ID, available on any smartphone device. This will replace the traditional printed cards.
If you do not have a smartphone and require a physical student ID card, contact student.involvement@nwtc.edu or call 920-498-5483.
Step 1 - Log in to Your NWTC Student Portal
- Go to your portal account directly or log in to the Student Portal using your NWTC ID number and password. You may need to use multi-factor authentication to verify your identity. (Watch a short video about how to log in to your account.)
- Click your name in the upper right corner of the page, then click Account.
- On the Account page, click Upload New Photo.
Step 2 - Take Your Photo
Photo Requirements:
For photos to be approved, they must adhere to the following:
- No hats or head coverings unless for religious purposes.
- We must be able to see your eyes; if you wear glasses, try to avoid glare. Have a solid color background.
- The tops of the shoulders covered and an area above your head must be visible. The person submitting the photo should be the only one visible in the photo, i.e., group photos are not accepted.
- Suggestion: Use your phone and have someone take a photo of you in front of a solid color wall looking straight ahead at the camera.
- Think of what your driver’s license or passport photo looks like. This is the type of photo the system accepts.

Step 3 - Submit Your Photo
Once the photo has been taken, submit the photo using the designated prompt on your screen. An automatic cropping/adjustment sequence will then initiate to ensure all requirements are met. If any of the requirements (bullet points stated above) are not met, a denial message will appear stating which requirement is not being met.
When the photo has been approved, a pop-up notification appears, signaling the photo was accepted and submitted. You then receive a confirmation email sent to your NWTC myMail address stating the photo has been received, thus completing the photo submission process.
Please note that your photo should appear anywhere from 15 minutes up to 2 hours after approval, depending on where the program is in the updating process. If the photo is not there within 1-2 days, please email us at student.involvement@nwtc.edu.
You can access your mobile student ID at any time in your NWTC Student Portal account.
