Collect your Smartcard

Your smartcard includes:

  • a photograph
  • brief details including your name, unique student number and library number

It also confirms your student registration and identity.

To enable us to produce a smartcard for you we need you to upload a photograph of yourself via the Student Portal.

You can collect your Smartcard:

  • between Tuesday 10 September and Tuesday 24 September (including Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 September)
  • from 9:00 to 17:00 in the Lindisfarne Room, Hadrian Building on the main University campus

Between Wednesday 25 September until Friday 4 October:

  • collect your smartcard from the Ford and Etal Rooms in the Hadrian Building

From Monday 7 October:

  • collect your smartcard from Student Services, Level 1, Great North House

Live locally or arriving early?

We encourage you to collect your Smartcard from 9 September when the Smartcard issuing location will be quieter. You do not need to collect your smartcard that week if you were not already planning on travelling to Newcastle.
