2. The Student Identity Card is for identification purposes at City University. The visual data, including validity dates shown on the card, are for reference only. Official student data reside in the university student record system and will be updated in line with changes to student status. Service providers on campus will verify the data on the card against the student record system to determine eligibility for various university services.

Alteration, falsification, or misuse of the Student Identity Card is a violation of the Code of Student Conduct, and other related university rules and regulations, and will be subject to disciplinary action. Fraudulent use of the Student Identity Card may also result in criminal charges and/or civil proceedings.


6. A student who has lost his/her Student Identity Card should report this to the Academic Regulations and Records Office Service Centre as soon as possible to invalidate the card and apply for a replacement by completing the appropriate application form.
