About your Coast Mountain College All-In-One ID card

When you start your studies at Coast Mountain College, you are required to get a CMTN ID card. To obtain your Coast Mountain All-In-One ID card, please follow these steps:

  1. Send us a picture of yourself. Please ensure that you are the only one in the photo and that your head and shoulders are visible. Remember that this is your formal student identification. Please consider an appropriate background and clothing for your photo. Eyeglasses and smiles are permitted, but please remove sunglasses and hats that shade your face.

  2. Photos should be sent to the contact below for the campus where you intend to pick up your ID card:
    Hazelton: hazelton@coastmountaincollege.ca
    Prince Rupert: library@coastmountaincollege.ca
    Smithers: kwilliamson@coastmountaincollege.ca
    Terrace: library@coastmountaincollege.ca

  3. A member of our Library or Enrolment Services teams will contact you with a specified pick-up time for your card.

  4. Arrive at your home campus at the specified time with government issued photo ID for pick-up.

Card front

On the front of the card is your student number and a barcode (which is your student number in barcode form).  If you are a Trades student, you will need this to check tools out from the tool crib. Your ID card expires one year from the date of issue.

Card back

On the back of the card is your library card, which never expires. The Coast Mountain College Library has more than just books; they lend bicycles, fishing rods and snow shoes, to name just a few other things. If you are no longer a student, our library is still free to use so keep your expired ID card!

Card Back

Card chip

There is a chip inside the card, so please do NOT bend the card. If the card breaks or is lost, it will cost $15.00 + tax to replace, payable at the registration desk.

The card chip acts as a key if you are a dorm student. This key will open your dorm room.

Depending on your program of studies, your instructor may also authorize access for other doors on campus with this key.

The card chip allows you to load and access credits for printing and photocopying on campus. Every new student automatically gets a $5.00 credit (equals approximately 50 copies). Learn more about print services at CMTN. To use your card for printing, you must log into the printer by placing your ID card on the WaveID sign on the printer/copier. You will use the same login credentials provided for accessing the computer lab.

For login information, please refer to the technical services support email or contact the Registration office at your local campus.
