Security IDBuilding management requires every tenant to use and wear a security key card (I.D.) for entrance and exit of the One North State Street building, to provide all Academy students and employees with a greater sense of security.

IDs help to minimize the access to our campus, classrooms and offices by non-Academy visitors, thereby reducing the potential for loss through theft of Academy and personal property.

With heightened security come some restrictions. The extra security we will enjoy is contingent upon our maintaining control over the ID. Any IDs threatens this control and, by extension, the safety and security of Academy personnel and equipment. To minimize ID loss, the following policy has been implemented:

You will be issued a photo ID key card that MUST BE WORN at all times while you are on campus – A $15 deposit will be charged to your student account and will be refunded when your card is returned at the end of your enrollment at the Academy-Chicago – This card allows you access to the Academy Chicago and the One North State building at the following times, which are subject to change: • Monday – Thursday 7:15AM–11:15PM • Friday 7:15AM–7:15PM • Saturday 7:15AM–6:15PM

There is no access on Sundays, unless the Academy-Chicago is open for a special event.

At the loss of your first issued ID key card, you will pay the replacement cost of that ID key card prior to the issuance of a new ID key card. Currently, the replacement cost of a new key card is valued at $15.00. This cost is not fixed, and may increase depending upon future cost increases by building management.
