How to get your Student ID Card
New students
All students need to have completed enrolment before they are issued with their student card.
Student cards are provided based on your mode of study and start date.
For students studying on campus (full-time, part-time and blended learning), you will be able to pick up your Student ID Card when you arrive for Welcome, or just before if convenient.
Distance Learning or UK Partner students*, we will not automatically print a physical card, as its primary purpose is access to campus buildings and facilities and as identification on Staffordshire University Campuses. You will have access to a digital Student ID on Beacon.
* Stoke on Trent College, Stoke Sixth Form, Newcastle under Lyme and Stafford College students will have a card printed automatically, due to their locality and requirements on campus. Stoke on Trent College and Stoke Sixth Form students can collect their cards from the Stoke campus (as above). Newcastle under Lyme and Stafford College student cards will be provided via their College.
