Application for HKBU Library Cards

Graduates / Alumni

HKBU awarded local graduates (HKBU four-year Diploma, Honours Diploma, Degree / Master / Doctoral Degree holders) are eligible to apply for Graduate Borrower Cards (application form).

HKBU awarded local Postgraduate Diploma / Postgraduate Certificate / Associate Degree holders may apply for Alumni Borrower Cards (application form).

Please bring with or mail one recent photo (with the applicant's name printed on the back) and the completed application form to the Main Library's Circulation Counter.

Graduates of collaborative degree programs jointly offered by SCE and an overseas university are not eligible to apply for graduate library cards, since these degrees are offered by the overseas university and not by HKBU.
