RMIT student cards

Your RMIT Student ID card is your key to unlocking the full RMIT experience.

How to use your student card

With your student card, you can:

  • borrow from the RMIT University Library
  • print, scan and photocopy on campus
  • access secure areas on campus such as computer labs and studios
  • identify yourself at formal assessments
  • identify yourself at RMIT service areas, if required
  • get discounts! Business and service providers around Vietnam or on campus sometimes offer discounts when you present your student card. You might get discounts on coffee, food, travel, movies and more.

Your student card and your responsibilities 

Your student card is an important form of identification and must be used appropriately at all times.

You are required to:

  • Wear your student card visibly while on campus
  • Bring your student card to all formal assessments
  • Keep your card secure and do not share it with others
  • Report and request a replacement card through Student Connect as soon as possible if it is lost, stolen, or damaged

Student cards are only valid while you are actively enrolled at RMIT. If you cancel your enrolment, you must return your card to Campus Security.

Important note on authenticity

RMIT student cards are issued only through Student Connect.

Cards obtained through unofficial sources are not valid and will be confiscated. Misuse of a student card (including use of a counterfeit card) may result in disciplinary action.

Get your first student card

Your first student card is free. Once you are enrolled, it’s best to submit a colour passport-style photo on myRMIT as soon as possible to get your student ID card issued. 

If you are a new student and need to pick up your new RMIT card, you must bring another form of official ID (passport or national ID card) for campus access.   

Before you upload your photo on myRMIT

Before you order your first card:

  • you must be enrolled at RMIT for at least 24 hours
  • you must activate your myRMIT account following the provided instruction in your registered personal email.

How to order your first student card

Step 1. Upload your photo and order your card online

  • Log in to myRMIT using your student ID number and password.
  • Select the Submit Request tile
  • Choose a form with title 'Student Card Photo
  • Upload a colour passport-style photo following the requirements listed in the form.  
  • If your photo does not meet the requirements, it may be declined, and you will need to submit a new photo. We don’t recommend taking a photo of your actual passport because this often isn’t a high enough quality image to be approved.  
  • Complete all other form fields and click Submit (top right corner) 

Step 2. Wait for confirmation that your card has been issued

We'll send an email to your RMIT student email account letting you know when your photo has been approved and when you can collect your card. 

Replace a lost or stolen student card or update a new photo

If you lose your card or it is stolen or you would like to update the photo on your current card, you can order a replacement student card. You must be currently enrolled in an RMIT program to be eligible for a replacement student card.  

A replacement card costs VND 200,000 which must be paid by the student.  

Once you order your replacement card, it will be ready for collection within 3 working days, excluding the submission day.  

 

To order your replacement student card

Complete and submit the replacement form on Student Connect Online Portal and pay the VND 200,000 charge for a replacement card. 

We'll send an email to your RMIT student account letting you know when your card is ready for collection. 

Until you request a replacement card, you are responsible for any misuse of your current student ID card. 

Replace an expired student card

If your student card has expired or is due to expire soon, you can simply visit Student Connect on campus to have your card extended. This is free of charge.  

You must be currently enrolled in an RMIT program to be eligible to extend your expired student card.
