Student ID cards
ID cards are mandatory for all students.
Apply for your card as soon as possible so you can access rooms, buildings, facilities and exam venues.
2. Check your email for confirmation
You'll be sent a confirmation email to pick up your ID card if your request is approved.
If your request is rejected follow the instructions in the email and send a reply. If you don't reply, we'll assume you no longer need an ID card and won't process your request.
Wait times
The time it takes to process your request is usually:
- 8-10 business days during peak times, such as the beginning of the semester
- 3-5 business days outside of peak periods.
Long wait times
If you haven't heard from us in 10 business days, check your UQ emails, including the spam folder. We may have asked you for some extra information (such as a new photo, government document, or graduation date update). If you haven't received an email, submit a new request.
