Medical Student ID Badges

Northwestern University Wildcards
All Medical Students should receive a Wildcard when they start their M1 year. If a student loses their wildcard they will need to go to the Wildcard office in Abbott Hall to pay for and obtain a new one. There is a $25 fee for a new wildcard. In addition, when a new wildcard is obtained, the student will have to get their indala chip activated. Stop by the Augusta Webster Office of Medical Education to have your wildcard activated. If you have questions about your wildcard you can call the Wildcard Office (University Services) 312-503-0548.

Northwestern Memorial Hospital ID Badges
In addition to the Northwestern University Wildcard, each medical student is issued a Northwestern Memorial Hospital Identification badge at the start of their M1 year.

These badges provide each medical student with identification throughout the University and hospital and access to the doors within Northwestern Memorial Hospital. M3 and M4 students are the primary users of the badges for door access in the hospital.

Medical students should display their ID badge on their white coat at all times for identification.
