As a college student (full-time or part-time) you are an automatic member of the LMC Students' Union (SU). LMC SU is affiliated to the National Union of Students (NUS). As such, LMC students are entitled to a NUS extra card. This is the national and official student discount card.
This card gives you access to loads of fantastic discounts from online stores like Amazon and Ticketmaster; high street shops such as Warehouse, JJB and ODEON; and a variety of local stores - basically wherever you see 'Student Discounts Available' in shops - the NUS extra card will give you access to these.
Sometimes you can use your LMC card to get discounts, but this only works locally and is not guaranteed. The NUS extra card is the official discount card and gives access to many more deals. Click here and see the many discounts on offer.
The NUS extra card is £11 and valid from August 2011-August 2012 - so the sooner you buy the card the more discounts you'll get.
You'll need to pay by card and upload a digital photo online at www.nus.org.uk - click here to buy your card.
For every card sold, £4.50 will go back to the Students' Union here - so more money for students to spend on student activities.
NUS extra cards are sent to the Goldfish Bowl (entrance to D Block) within 2 weeks. You will receive an email letting you know when it is ready to collect. For more information contact Adele Burrow, Student Liaison Officer via the box below or by dropping into the Goldfish Bowl.
