COLLEGE & UNIVERSITY
MOUNT VIEW UNIVERSITY: A highly regarded liberal arts university
MVU students
and staff have
convenient and
speedy access
to library and
media center
materials as well
as recreational
equipment
— all thanks to a
convenient scan
of a 2D bar code.
A student’s
identity and
tuition
account
balance — read
via the card’s
smart chip
— must be
verified before
they are allowed
to register for
each semester’s
classes.
Mount View
University was
able to offset
some of their
card printing
costs through
a
sponsored
partnership with
FastBank. The
card’s magnetic
stripe offers
students and
faculty access to
FastBank
self-service
kiosks
throughout
campus.
Students’
identification
numbers
are used to
authenticate
the user in
legacy campus
facilities that
do not yet
have advanced
card-reading
equipment.
What better way to reinforce its reputation as one of the
nation’s most prestigious and scenic campuses than by
choosing a custom holographic overlaminate to go over a
background photograph of its renowned
Mount View Park.
Key Concerns: financial transactions, facility access, fraud prevention, brand enhancement
