Upon receipt of your card, you as a student, will:

  • Accept responsibility for your Trinity student ID card.
  • Sign your Trinity student ID card in the presence of College staff.
  • Ensure that the photograph on your Trinity student ID card is an acceptable form of identification.
  • Ensure that you retain your Trinity student ID card solely for your own use.
  • Always carry your Trinity student ID card while on College campus.
  • Present your Trinity student ID card when requested to do so by a member of College staff. Refusal to present a Trinity student ID card when asked may result in failure to receive provision of College services. Your card may be retained by member of staff if deemed necessary.
  • Ensure that if you withdraw you will return your ID card to the Academic Registry Service Desk. Be aware that if your Trinity student ID card is lost or stolen, you are obliged to inform the Academic Registry immediately (academic.registry@tcd.ie), so that the appropriate precautions can be taken to ensure that your card is not used without your consent. Failure to notify the Office places you at risk of serious allegations of collusion in the fraudulent use of your Trinity student ID card.
