Online Photo Submission
Submitting your photo is the first step in setting up your Govs ID Card. We need to review a couple of things before you begin.
The photo you select is for more than just your Govs ID Card. It is used in your academic profile and on class rosters. Select the best photo to represent you as a member of the APSU Community.
