Current and returning students
Collect or update your student ID card
Your student ID card helps you access buildings and services on campus. If you’re returning to study, it’s a good idea to sort this early so you’re not delayed in Week 1.
What you need to do
- Collect your ID card (if you don’t have one yet).
- Update or reactivate your card (if it’s expired or has stopped working).
- Replace your card (if it’s lost or damaged).
Where to go
For detailed information on ID card collection, please visit the CU Coventry enrolment page.
Visit the Customer Service Desk on campus and they can direct you.
What to bring with you
Bring a form of ID so we can confirm your identity before issuing or updating your card.
If you have a problem
If your card isn’t working, or you’re having access issues:
- visit an ID point as soon as you can after you return
- or go to the Customer Service Desks for help and guidance on next steps.
