Access. Your LC Student Card gives you access to the campus your course is taught on, the Language Resources Centre (based at Strand Campus) and all King's libraries. The card does not grant you access to NUS discounts or discounts and benefits offered to King's degree students. 

Lost card. Should you lose your card you will need to request a replacement. There is a £10 replacement fee. Please visit the King's eStore and complete the payment.
