All exchange students must observe the Rules Governing Enrolment of Local and Non-local Students and complete the enrolment procedures at the Academic Regulations and Records Office (ARRO) Service Centre [Service Hours and Map], and obtain a student identity card as soon as arriving at CityU.

In addition, exchange students should go to the Global Engagement Office [Location and Contact information] to collect a welcoming folder, which includes an Enrolment Notification. Please complete the enrolment procedures by the end date of Week 2 of Semesters A or B as specified in our Academic Calendars.

The student identity card is a personal identification document at CityU. It is required for access to campus facilities, including the library, Sports Complex, and the Computing Services Centre.

The unified Electronic Identity (EID) is a unique identifier used by the computer (or by an application running on it) to speedily retrieve information residing on one or more computer systems about a specific student. To activate the EID at CityU’s e-Portal, students are advised to use “EXGB” as the programme code.
