    I am a UCI student and have been a SoCal resident due to my status as a student. I was wondering if showed my student ID would work as residency validation for the resident 3-day deal?

    Hello, Fae! Thanks for swinging by planDisney with your question.

    It's great that you want to use the current Southern California Resident Ticket deal. However, a Cast Member told me there is no substitution for a government-issued photo ID with a qualifying address listed. You will need an updated ID to use the SoCal Resident Ticket. Student IDs are not an acceptable substitution for proof of eligible residency. I'm sorry if this isn't what you hoped to hear, Fae! 

    If you don't plan to have an updated government-issued photo ID before the SoCal ticket offer expires, I encourage you to check the Offers & Discounts page on the Disneyland Resort website. There is a Disneyland Anniversary ticket offer beginning in May that may be of interest. Additionally, some student unions may offer discounted theme park tickets, so you might want to check at your campus!

    I hope this information helps, Fae. Please visit us again if we can help with any other Disney planning questions!

    See ya real soon,
    Melissa
