Go to the SpartanCard Center, located in 106 Moran Commons (the UNCG Dining Hall). A SpartanCard representative is there to assist you from 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday.
If you are a student, your UNCG ID Number is a 9 digit number given to you on your acceptance letter. Faculty obtain this number through the Provost’s Office upon hire, and Staff will receive this number from Human Resources upon hire. If you already have your UNCG email account, you can find your ID number here by using your iSpartan login.
Your card should work automatically once you’ve enrolled in classes. If you have just received your card, it may take up to an hour to link with your student record. If you experience problems with your card, please contact the SpartanCard Center, located in 106 Moran Commons (the UNCG Dining Hall).
Your card has the potential to be used at all campus dining locations, the UNCG Bookstore, pay-for-print stations, and other locations all across campus. For details about everything your card can do, please visit the Using Your Card webpage.
No. The SpartanCard is not transferable and should only be carried by you, the Cardholder, at all times. Using another person’s card or card number is, at minimum, a felony and will be reported to UNCG Police and the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities. Cards being used by anyone other than their owner will be confiscated. The Cardholder will be able to retrieve their card at the SpartanCard Center, the next business day or upon delivery. Multiple instances of confiscation will result in documentation submitted to the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities for willful abuse of the SpartanCard.
Treat your card with care. Do not punch holes in it or place it near anything that would erase the magnetic stripe. Do not expose the card to water. Card protectors are available for purchase in the UNCG Bookstore.
Contact the SpartanCard Center immediately if your card is lost, stolen, or damaged. Please see the Misplaced Cards page for instructions on locking your card account online and recovering/replacing your card.

SpartanCash may only be refunded if you are no longer affiliated with the University. All refund requests are processed through your University account. To request a refund and get further details, contact the SpartanCard Center at [email protected]. Please remember to include your full name and student ID number.
Bookstore Bucks will stay on your card until you request a refund or your account is closed. We encourage students to think twice before requesting a refund to avoid unnecessary refund charges. To request a refund and additional details, contact the SpartanCard Center at [email protected]. Please remember to include your full name and student ID number. All refund requests are processed through your University account.
No. Because Flex is considered a component of your UNCG meal plan it cannot be refunded or transferred to other accounts.
Flex no longer expires, but it will roll into a “Forever Flex” account on your SpartanCard at the end of each semester. When using Flex at retail locations, “Forever Flex” will be used first, then current Flex. This will happen automatically and both balances will be visible via SpartanCard Online. For more details please see our terms and conditions or contact us.
All students have three accessible fund accounts on their card:
Please note that the General Meal Plan Terms and Conditions apply to all Flex and Forever Flex funds.
Flex can be used at all on-campus UNCG Dining locations, including the Fountain View Restaurant, and a number of off-campus partner locations. Flex will give you a $1.00 discount when used at the Fountain View Restaurant. Save 5% when you use your SpartanCard at other on-campus Dining Locations (excludes Fountain View Restaurant).
Once added to your card, Bookstore Bucks can be used in-person or online with the UNCG Bookstore. When ordering online, please select the “SpartanCard” option at checkout and enter the 16-digit number from the front of your SpartanCard.
Note: If you are renting textbooks, a credit card will be required but will not be charged unless you fail to return the rental.

You need two things:
UNCG Postal Services processes packages and mail as quickly as possible. However, during “back-to-school” and other rush periods, it may take some extra time for us to process your shipment. Emails from shippers (UPS, FedEx, etc) do not mean your package is ready to pick-up; shipper emails simply acknowledge that your package has been received by our sorting facility. Your package will be ready for pickup only once you have received an email from us ([email protected]). If you have not received an email after 2 business days of your package arriving at our sorting facility, please contact us so that we can investigate possible issues.
Third-party websites and services often attempt to verify your address before shipping your order. The UNCG student zip code, 27413, is an official USPS zip code specifically designed to support the iSpartan notification and box system. If you are having trouble it is likely due to the website’s verification process on address line one. In addition, websites often allow you to bypass their address verification. As long as you are using zip code 27413 and following our address format, you will receive your mail!
If you received an email specifying you must pick up your package, it is likely due to incorrect formatting of the campus address. Faculty/staff mail has a distinct address format and zip-code; mail addressed incorrectly may end up in our student mail center. For faculty/staff addressing information, please see our Faculty/Staff Mail page.
Carriers typically serve departments between 10am and 3pm, Monday through Friday. However, there are many factors that can influence when your carrier will arrive to assist your department. These include:
In short, while we strive to deliver consistent and quality service, we are unable to guarantee exact delivery/pickup times. If you have a special or high-priority need please contact us using our contact page so we can work to accommodate your request.
