• How do I find out my student ID?
    13 replies, posted
I'm currently attending a 6th form college (UK) and i've only just found out that student ID gets you access to loads of special offers and money off online stores, ect. Thing is, i've never heard anything mentioned about student ID in 6th form, and I don't even have any idea if i've actually got one... Help? edit: how the fuck did I get a funny rating? edit: ok you can stop now
To get most of the offers, you'll probably need a [url=http://www.nus.org.uk/]NUS[/url] card to prove you're a student - but some local places might accept an ID card from your college if they give you one, like a library card or similar.

For us we have to buy a student discount card from our college for £10. This allows us to get discount on things such as cinema tickets.

Ok thanks I'll check out the NUS website now
Get an NUS card, but be aware that you'll have to pick it up from your college to verify your legitimacy (usually go and see admin).
I had a student ID that was used as ID to enter college, and was also an NUS card. It didn't have a number on it though so I couldn't use it online but it worked in shops.
I think your supposed to get one, i know people went to sixth form and had them. Don't think mine was NUS but yeah you get discounts in most major shops and you even get a free burger if you use it when your buying a McDs meal

However University IDs work. Huzzah!
