Student ID card

You can use your student ID card to:

• to identify yourself at online exams.
  Only if you do not have a student ID card, you can identify yourself with a valid identity card. For online exams, the BSN must not be visible on the screen.
  Please note: for exams on location only an ID card or passport is considered as a valid proof of identity, not a student card!
• borrow books from the university library or the university of applied sciences library.
• Check all information about your student ID card and how to apply

Please note: if you don’t live in the Netherlands, your student ID card will not be sent to your home address. It will be ready for you to collect from one of the AUAS service points.
