EID Upgrade Upgrading your UT EID confirms your identity to the university computer network and allows you to conduct electronic transactions that would normally require a legal signature. To upgrade your UT EID, visit the ID Center in person and present a valid, current government-issued ID. (High school ID cards are not valid.) You must also sign the EID Agreement which gives your UT EID legal signature authority. Valid forms of identification: • Driver’s license from the United States or Canada
or State ID • Valid learner’s permit or temporary license (must include photograph) from the United States or Canada
 • U.S. Military ID (Common Access Card, Uniformed Services Card) • U.S. or foreign passport
 • Alien registration card with photo (form I-151 or I-551) • U.S. citizen ID card (form I-197)
 • Resident citizen card (form I-179) • U.S. Employment Authorization Card – EAD (form I-766) • Native American Tribal Photo Identification Card • Trusted Travelers Program (Global Entry, NEXUS, SENTRI, FAST) If you are under 18, you must do one of the following in order to upgrade your EID: 1. Visit the ID Center in the Flawn Academic Center (FAC) with your legal guardian to sign the Electronic Agreement Form. You and your guardian must both present a valid, non-expired, official government-issued photo ID. 2. If your legal guardian cannot be present at orientation, you can go to https://idmanager.its.utexas.edu/ eid_self_help/ and click “Upgrade My UT EID” to download the Remote EID Upgrade Form. You can print this form, have it notarized and bring it to orientation in order to upgrade your EID without your parent/guardian.
