Student ID
BAU students will be photographed for their student ID cards during Orientation, which is mandatory. Your student ID will be processed on that day, and we will not process it before Orientation or accept any personal photos. You must be present to have your photo taken and your card processed unless you are not in the country at the time. If that is the case, please send a copy of your plane or train ticket to [email protected]. Once your OIS profile has been updated, you can pick up your ID card from Student Services, usually the next day.
