ID CARDS

 

ALL STUDENTS (studying for more than 3 weeks) will be issued with an OPSA Identification Card – you need to visit or contact the OPSA Office to process this.

What do you need?

Dunedin Students:
• Your Polytechnic Student Number, or preferably your Polytechnic Tax Invoice.
• First time OP students also need photo identification (ie driver’s licence, passport).

Non-Dunedin Students
• Students studying at campuses outside Dunedin will have your ID photographs taken which will be processed in Dunedin.
• Students studying by correspondence and living outside Dunedin can send 1) a copy of your Polytechnic Tax Invoice or Polytechnic Student Number, 2) your name, and 3) your course, and 3) a passport style photo, to the OPSA Office or email them to the Secetary. And we will process your ID Card and send it out to you. Please include 4) the non-Dunedin address you would like the card to be posted to.

• Bill Robertson Library (will need to be activated at the Library)
