As a Bates alum, please note that you won’t receive a Bates ID card, and general access to campus buildings and facilities is limited. However, we’re happy to offer access to Commons and Ladd Library during their open hours, and you’ll have circulation privileges to borrow materials from the library. For other visits, such as attending Bates College-sponsored events or coming as a guest with a host, pre-approved access may be arranged.

Please remember to keep your contact information updated with the Alumni Engagement office to stay informed about Bates news.

If you require your Bates ID number, please contact us at alumni@bates.edu or 1-888-522-8371.
