Campus Card terms and conditions

Application

All members of the University.

Purpose

To clarify the nature and purpose of the University Campus Card. 

Background

The University aims to provide a safe and secure environment, where affiliated parties can be easily and quickly identified.

The Campus Card has been designed to provide a single, centrally managed, multi-purpose identity (ID) card that serves as both a form of University identification and credential for interaction with the University.

A University Campus Card allows current affiliated users access to a range of Campus Card services including library and print services, access to campus facilities, and more.

  3. The back of the Campus Card must contain the card holder’s legal name, barcode number, magnetic stripe and brief terms of use, date of issuance and date of expiry.
