Unique Identifier for Student (Student UID)

Overview
The intent of this document is to provide an overview of the Unique Identifier for Student (Student
UID) System. After reviewing this information, please review the training materials available on the

Student UID Overview


 Through the PowerSchool application the Unique Identifier for Student System (UID System)
will assign a unique ID to every student who participates in the NC Public School System.
 Unique IDs follow students between school districts and remain valid even if they move out of
state and then return to a NC Public School.
 Assigning unique identifiers is the first step in DPI’s multi-stage effort to create the NC
Common Education Data Analysis and Reporting System (CEDARS).
 Student UID is built on the eScholar Uniq-ID® for Students product.
