GET YOUR UCARD

If your Student Card (UCARD) for your current programme was issued in or after 2010/11 it will be reactivated for 2016/17 once you have confirmed your registration.
If you need a new UCARD please go to the UCARD Bureau, located in the JK Area of the Newman Building (beside Theatre L).
Remember to keep your UCARD with you at all times, as you will need it for identification purposes, for access to UCD services and to sit your exams.
