Student ID card

You must obtain a Student ID card from the University in order to fully complete the registration process, failure to do so may result in your registration with the University being terminated. Your Student ID card, which remains the property of the University of Leeds at all times, is your key to the University and as such it:

• identifies you as a student of the University of Leeds
• allows you to use the University Union (subject to Union regulations)
• is your University Library Card - you will need it to enter Library buildings
• provides you with access to University Computing facilities (through Information Systems Services)
• allows you to use Sport and Physical Activity facilities (if you choose to join and pay the fee)

Your Student ID card will last for the duration of your study at the University. If you change your programme, and this has an impact on the duration of your study, you should obtain a new card (prior to the expiry of your current card) from the Student Services Centre Counter, Level 9, Marjorie & Arnold Ziff Building.

Fraudulent use of a Student ID card will be subject to action under the University Disciplinary Procedure. Such action may involve not only the perpetrator of the fraud but also the student whose card is involved if it can be shown that the student was culpable (for example if the card has been lent).

You must collect your Student ID Card in order for your attendance to be confirmed to the Student Loan Company (where applicable). Your loan will then be paid into your bank account within 3-4 days after attendance has been confirmed.
