Student ID cards

Where can I obtain a student ID Card?

When your enrolment has been processed and confirmed, you are entitled to a Student Identification Card (Photo ID). This can be obtained at the Information Centre located on the ground floor in Building Orange 1, Casuarina campus, at the Cashier, Building A Palmerston campus or at the Information Centre, Building 1 at Alice Springs campus. You will be required to show photo identification (Australian driver’s licence or passport) before your card will be issued.

External students can obtain a card by completing form GEN103 – Student Cards for External Students (PDF 149.38KB) or available from the Information Centre.

What is my student ID card used for?

Your student card provides access to university facilities such as the Library, after-hours computer labs, some discounts at the University Bookshop and other discounts where notified by the business concerned. You will also be required to show your student card when you sit for your exams. If you are studying on campus, you may be asked for your ID card by Security if you are using the facilities after normal hours.

Head coverings and my student ID card photo

Head coverings are not permitted to be worn, except for religious reasons, in which case, facial features from the bottom of the chin to the top of the forehead and both edges of your face must be clearly shown. The university will take every measure possible to ensure privacy for students wearing head coverings for religious reasons.

Is there a cost for my student ID card?

Student cards are issued to students free of charge. A $15 administration fee will apply when a lost card is replaced. Stolen cards can be replaced free of charge when the application is accompanied by a police incident number.
