Student ID cards

About the ALC Student ID/Library card

Every ALC student [on and off campus], who enrols in and pays [upfront or via FEE-HELP] for at least one scheduled unit in an academic year, is automatically issued with an ALC Student ID/Library card valid for the full academic year. Students are required to submit a photo [electronic preferred] with the Application for Enrolment.
The Student ID/Library card is generated from data in the ALC Educational Management System, printed interstate and mailed directly to the nominated preferred mailing address for convenience.

Some of the benefits students may receive with an ALC student ID/Library card include:

clear identification as an ALC student for the academic year
membership and borrowing rights to the Löhe Memorial Library at ALC
specific borrowing rights from any ALC reciprocal library
a student discount when purchasing books from some bookstores
discounted tickets from some cinemas
discount on travel [this may require an additional specific state transport card issued to full-time students only]

Please note that student cards are generated subject to the receipt of tuition fees for that study period or the completed FEE-HELP application for that course. Preferred ID Photo specifications
