Cardiff University Student Card

All students are required to carry a Cardiff University Student card on-site. The card has a number of important functions:

  • library card
  • proximity (security) card to gain entry to various University buildings
  • proof of identity
  • proof of National Union of Students (NUS) membership

Failure to collect your student card within two weeks will result in a delay in releasing funding from the Student Loans Company (if applicable) and for International students may result in you being reported to the UKBA for "Non Attendance". 

How do I get my card?
 The majority of new students will be required to collect their card in Person.

Some categories of part-time and distance learning students will be required to complete a Student Card Request Form.
