Your student card
03 March 2021
Aside from serving as your official ID on campus, your student card gives you access to oodles of on-campus facilities, including transport, residences and the libraries. And it lines you up for some pretty sweet discounts, if you know where to swipe it!
Your student card is your:
- proof of identity on campus and must be carried with you at all times
- access key to labs and other facilities related to your studies
- library card, which allows you take out six items for seven days
- ticket to using the Jammie Shuttle – for mahala
- key to your residence (if you’re staying in res)
- meal ticket, which allows you to choose what you eat (if you’re staying in res)
- source of credit for photocopying and printing.
