Guidance on where and when to collect your card: Student ID Card Information

Why Your ID Card Is Important

  • Provides access to certain buildings and facilities (e.g. printers, photocopiers, computer rooms).
  • Must be carried at all times on campus.
  • Used for examinations – you must place it on your desk during all face-to-face exams and copy your student number onto your script.
  • Functions as your library card.
  • May be required to confirm your attendance (e.g. scanning into lecture theatres).

Rules and Misuse

  • If you cannot produce your card when asked, or if staff cannot verify it belongs to you, you may be removed from the building.
  • Misuse of your card (e.g. lending it to others) will normally be investigated under the Code of Student Discipline: Student Misconduct Policy.

Lost or Stolen Cards

  • If your card is lost or stolen, you must obtain a replacement from the Student Enquiry Centre: How to get a new ID card.
  • A replacement fee will be charged (unless your card was stolen and you can provide a crime reference number).
