Student Card

The NUS Student Card identifies you as an NUS student and can be used to access general facilities on NUS premises. 

Submission of Photograph

Registered students will be issued a Student Card that is valid throughout the period of study at the University. Students are required to submit a photograph after accepting the admission offer. Approved photographs will be used for official records and Student Card printing.

Receiving Your Student Card
Please refer to the respective Registration Guides (or information leaflet from the respective NUS admission departments) for the dates and details on collection of your Student Card, either through self-collection or mail.
