    I've been accepted in to Law and Arts (BCL) for second year which means that I am transferring from Arts as I was doing last year. So do I need to get a new student card for that or do I still keep my Arts one for the next few years?

    I presume you keep the same card, all that matters is your in the course not what the card says. Double check with the Law department but I think the card you have will be fine, it would be too much hassle getting new cards for everyone that changed degree.

    I suppose if you really want a new card you can ask for one but I presume you will have to pay a fee for it.

    I already had to get a new one last year and they just gave me the same one I'd had before, same pic like!

    Do you have to go through a separate registration because you're transferring? They give out the student cards all through next week so if you're registering again you could probably wing it and get a new card there and then.

    Not worth getting a new one at all then, did you see Sibo is going to be our Tort lecturer.

    Nope don't think so. Did it online yesterday and just picked the course from the choices I had!
