Online Photo Submission

Photo Guidelines

To ensure that your photo is suitable for a Brookdale OneCard, please follow the guidelines below.

File Format

We accept photos in jpg, png or gif format.

Color

Photo should be in full color and taken against a white, off-white or very light background. Do not submit photos in black and white, or with any effects applied.

Your Image

• The photo must show a close-up of your face and shoulders; clothing must be visible.
• Look straight ahead with a relaxed face, not frowning.  Feel free to smile!
• Your face and eyes must be clearly visible.
• If you wear glasses, ensure there is no reflection and the frames do not obstruct your eyes.
• Caps, hats and dark glasses are not acceptable.
• Religious headwear is allowed but it must not cover your face.

Terms and Conditions

Policy on Release of OneCard Digitized Photographs

A valid government issued photo identification card is required to obtain your OneCard (ID card). You will not receive your OneCard without a valid government issued photo ID card. Please bring either a U.S. Driver’s License issued by DMV, or a Passport, or a U.S. Military ID card.

The use of any photograph submitted through the OneCard Brookdale Bucks eAccount online photo submission software is only to obtain a new OneCard (ID card). If you want a new photo on your OneCard, the standard replacement fee applies. If an incorrect photo is submitted and your card is printed, at the time of pickup, a replacement fee will be required to have a new card printed with your correct photo.

When a photograph is taken for the issuance of a OneCard, the digitized photo will be stored electronically for identification and security purposes. In addition, the photo may be used for approved internal college business purposes (e.g. class rosters, seating charts, academic advising rosters, and business uses that may be approved in the future).
