Most continuing students will by now have their new student card.
This card incorporates a National Entitlement card, which can be used to join community libraries and leisure facilities and will be valid even after you finish your studies here. The new cards are also sQuid enabled. SQuid can be used to make payments in various shops around Dundee and in the Student Centre and at the moment there is a cashback offer for purchases made via sQuid. Check out the sQuid web page for full details on using it http://www.squidcard.com/NEC_Abertay.html
If you are under 26 and have opted to have a Young Scot card this will be incorporated in your new student card. You can check out the discounts available for Young Scot card holders at http://www.youngscot.org/
If you haven't yet collected your new card ask for it at the Library Enquiry Desk on Level 1 of the Library.
If you're using sQuid, Young Scot or any of the National Entitlement Card options let us know about it here.
