Student ID card

Your ID card gives you access to services and benefits!

Student ID Card

After completing the enrollment process, you will be entitled to receive an ID card that will give you access to College Boréal’s internal services, including:

  • Library loans
  • Photocopying or printing
  • Access to a specialized laboratory for your program (depending on the campus and the program)
  • Access to the sports centre (depending on the campus) (full-time students only)
  • Access to the student residence (Sudbury campus)

The card also entitles you to certain discounts from external vendors, for example:

  • Travel expenses
  • Bus card
  • Restaurants and more

How to get your ID card

If you are enrolled full-time in a post-secondary program, or full-time or part-time in an apprenticeship program, the cost of the student card is included in your institutional ancillary fees.

If you are enrolled in an LBS/BS or ACE (Access Career Entrance) program or a part-time post-secondary program, you can get a student ID card by paying the related fees.

Student cards are usually issued at the start of a program and remain valid for the duration of your studies at Collège Boréal.

If you lose your card, you must notify the Admissions Office and Registrar or a staff member at your campus or site’s reception desk and pay to have it replaced (have a duplicate made).

Important information about the taking of the student ID photo

Before taking your photo, the staff will ask you to remove:

  • any head coverings (hat, tuque, baseball cap, etc.);
  • your sunglasses;
  • your headphones; and
  • any other piece of clothing or device you may be wearing on your head or that is covering your face

If you prefer not to remove your head covering due to religious beliefs, please inform the Admissions Office and Registrar. The staff will tell you what to do to have your photo meets our requirements.
