On-Campus Essentials

The college offers current COM students and employees the COM ID card. The COM ID card is not only the official identification card of the college, but also the means to access facilities and services such as the library, tutoring center, computer labs, gym facility, and bookstore.

The first COM ID card is free for students and employees.  A replacement ID card is $5.  The COM ID card is available at the Doyle Family Administration Building - Student Help Center during normal operating hours.  

To obtain a COM ID Card:

  1. Go to Student ID Request Form and log in to your COM account.
  2. Select your student type and press "Continue" to complete the form.
  3. Upload your photo. Be sure to review the photo criteria.
  4. Your ID will be ready on the next business day. You will be notified by email and phone call.
  5. Visit the Welcome Desk in the Doyle Family Administration Building to obtain your COM ID Card.

The COM ID card is non-transferable. Misuse of the card may result in disciplinary action by the college. Lost, stolen or damaged cards should be reported to the Doyle Family Administration Building – Student Help Center immediately.

A parking permit should be displayed on each automobile parked on any COM campus.

Vehicles with temporary license plates or those regarded as rental vehicles should display a temporary parking permit. Apply for a temporary parking permit here. Vehicles with permanent license plates should display a traditional parking permit.

Follow the instructions below to obtain a traditional parking permit:
