ONECard is an essential piece of identification for all UVic students, faculty, staff, retirees, alumni and affiliates. You can have the first name that you use on your ONECard; it does not need to be your legal first name.

There are now processes to get your ONECard online as well as in person—please visit the ONECard website for more details. The first name on your government-issued ID does not need to match the name you’d like to use on your ONECard. Please ensure that the name you wish to use is showing in the university computer system under the heading “preferred name” in MyPage prior to arriving at the ONECard office.

Note that if you submit a photo online, cards are printed with your preferred name. While your first card is free, all replacement cards have a $20.00 charge.

There are a number of places at UVic with all-gender washrooms. Many are lockable single-stall washrooms and some are open multi-stalled washrooms. 

To locate one, visit the all-gender washrooms map.

Inclusive washrooms, change rooms and weight room: CARSA has four gender-inclusive single-stall change rooms that have showers. Any patron can access either the gender-inclusive single-stall change room or the gendered change room. Gender-inclusive signage will be installed soon. Signage in the weight room is gender-inclusive. The weight room is open to persons of all genders and does not have gender-restricted areas.

. UVic Athletics and Recreation strives to provide welcoming opportunities for all participants and to enhance well being, participation and a sense of community on campus through intramural sport. They have created two Divisions for participation as follows:

• Open Category: Men, Women, Two-Spirit, Trans, Non-Binary
  This category welcomes individuals of all genders to participate. When participants sign up for a team, they are not asked to provide or state their gender. 
• Co-Recreation Category: Men, Women, Two-Spirit, Trans, Non-Binary
  This category welcomes individuals of all genders to participate. However, teams must adhere to a maximum number of self-identified men. Please refer to each sport for specific guidelines. 

We recognize that trans, Two-Spirit and non-binary individuals have in the past and may still experience harmful actions or encounters at UVic. This is an unfortunate reality.

If you encounter discrimination or harassment related to your gender identity or expression—whether on campus, in the classroom, residences, or elsewhere—UVic has resources to provide support. Please note that while our policies can address incidences that occur within our university’s jurisdiction, we provide support and referrals to everyone, regardless of where the incident occurred.

OSL can review reports about student conduct that endangers the health, safety or well-being of any community member. They can discuss options for response and support and can investigate formal allegations of non-academic misconduct. Staff at the Office of Student Life are committed to engaging with ongoing training and review of their approach to working with students through a Trauma-Informed lens.
