How To Find My Eagle Id Boston College |
Where Eagles Dare (to Have IDs):
Tip: Look for small cues in wording.
Fresh off the Nest: For freshmen, your Eagle ID awaits during orientation. It'll be like a magical bird hatching, except way less messy (hopefully). Just make sure you're officially enrolled and financially cleared – no ID for those who haven't settled their Birdie Bucks bill!
The Transfer Territory: Transfer eagles, fret not! You should receive instructions on obtaining your ID via email from the admissions office. If that email mysteriously vanished into the spam abyss, contact the lovely folks in the Office of Student Services – they'll be your nest egg (see what we did there?).
The Lost and Found Flock: Misplaced your ID? We've all been there (or maybe that was just someone with a serious case of the Mondays). Head over to
to deactivate your lost ID to avoid any funky financial transactions by rogue squirrels. Then, hop on over to the Office of Student Services in Lyons Hall to claim your new one. Just remember, a little birdy told me there might be a fee involved, so try to keep track of that little piece of plastic!https://bcservices.bc.edu/service/bcid
