When you have been accepted on a course of study at the University of Sunderland, you are eligible to become a member of the Students' Union and to apply for your joint University/Students' Union Campus Card.
When your place at the University is confirmed, you will be sent information from the University, which will include details of how to apply ONLINE for your Campus Card. This is your University Student ID and Library card.
The Students' Union are not issuing separate Union cards. Once you have applied for and collected your Campus Card, you will have automatically joined the Students' Union.
Your Campus Card will be valid for the whole of the time you are studying at the University, so you will not need to renew your card or your Students' Union membership each year. Returning students will already have been issued with a Campus Card last year, which is still valid and will therefore not be issued with a new card this year.
You will be able to collect your Campus Card from the Gateway on the City Campus on Chester Road, when you register with the University (you will be sent details by the University of your registration date and time).
If you are an International Student, you can upgrade your Union membership to International Gold
The International Gold Membership Card can be bought from the Students' Union Reception in Edinburgh Building - next to the Gateway on the City Campus.
Ken Fryer is the International/Equality and Diversity Officer and is only too happy to give you more information, Ken can be found in the Students' Union Offices in Wearbank House on the St Peters Campus or email Ken
