COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – The $1.9 billion Ent FCU and the University of Colorado will soon sign a deal that will allow students at the Colorado Springs campus to have one card which will allow them full access to different parts of student life as well as ATM and debit access to their CU accounts.

In cooperation with Ent, UCCS will offer the Lion OneCard to the university's more than 7,800 students and 1,000 faculty and staff members beginning this fall. The card will serve as university photo identification and will allow access to student housing, athletic and performing arts events, shuttle buses and meal plans. The ATM access will be an option.

"This is an exciting opportunity for members of the campus community to use one card to access nearly every campus service," Brian Burnett, vice chancellor, administration and finance, said. "The day of needing only one item in your pocket is here."
