My daughter received a letter in the mail, among many from this university which is her first choice, that they are pleased to be in receipt of her application and she has an Admissions Office contact as well as a Student ID, Term, Major, Banner Program (whatever this is), and Residence Code. Could this just be customary for the many applicants that they have so they assign them a Student ID Number? This information was never on any of the other letters she has received since she started the application process back in November. She has already been accepted into her alternate choice and assigned a Student ID Number, but she received the big package that came along with that letter.

Yes, they usually assign you an ID number when you request information from them. That number allows them to pull up your daughter's information and to tell her apart from the thousands of other students in the school.

It is just a reference number of the application. After admission, the student will get another number which will remain the ID number throughout one's stay in that university!

That student ID is likely just a "pending" number that stores her basic application in a database. Once she accepts and sets up payment, then she will get a real student ID.
