Student cards
New students
All students must obtain a student card after registration. You will need your student card for various purposes, so always carry it with you while on campus. Once you have registered, visit the applicable venue below. You will be asked for proof of registration and outstanding fees payment, and will then be issued with your card:
- Neelsie Student Centre – for card issuing from Monday 27 January to Friday 21 February 2025. Cards will be issued daily between 8:00 – 16:00. Please note on Friday, 21 February 2025 cards will be issued until 13:00.
- Admin A, IT Hub – for card issuing from Friday 21 February 2025 (from 14:00).
Students on the Tygerberg campus should consult their specific campus registration information for details regarding the collection of their student cards.
Returning students (reactivation of student card)
If you still have your student card of 2024 and will continue using it in 2025, you do not need to reactivate it. The card will be automatically reactivated once you have registered for the 2025 academic year and paid any outstanding fees from prior years.
