The 17-digit U Card number on your U Card is used to uniquely identify you as a member of the University of Minnesota community. This number is also referenced by TCF Bank when a cardholder has a TCF U Card Checking account and their U Card is used at an ATM. Once you've opened a TCF U Card Checking Account you can use your U Card as an ATM card, like you would a check or debit card. TCF U Card Checking accounts can be opened at the U Card Office or at any TCF Bank branch.
