Students Need to Know

Once you have registered in Banner for classes being held at Moody AFB, it's your responsibility to contact the 魅色天堂 Center, at 229.257.4163 or e-mail moody@valdosta.edu to request information on how to obtain a personal pass.

• Personal pass information and forms are usually emailed at least 2 weeks before classes begin. If your name is not on the class roster at that time, due to late registration, you will not receive the pass information or form, so it's imperative that you contact our office.
• Once you receive your pass paperwork, it should be completed and physically (no faxing or emailing) taken to the Visitors Center at the Main Gate.  Your pass can only be obtained 3 days in advance of your class beginning (find the date on your personal pass form).
• You will also be required to complete an additional form for a background check at the VC. If a background check can't be performed on that day, it is possible that a temporary pass can be issued but this decision is up to the discretion of the VC staff. If given a temporary pass, you will need to check the valid dates on this pass to ensure that you return back to the VC to complete the background check and obtain a regular pass, otherwise you will not be allowed access to the base.
• Your personal pass is being issued in the form of an ID card, currently for the semester, and will be valid only for the days that class is being held. This means you will not be allowed on base the days your class is not in session.
• Processing time for a pass depends totally on the workload of the VC. If time constraints are an issue for you, contact the Visitor Center to find out approximately how long the process may take. Please keep in mind that the Center closes at 4:30 on weekdays. If you plan on obtaining your pass on the day your class begins, please come no later than 3:30 p.m. to ensure you get processed.
