    [quote=[Deleted User];13706157]Hey, do you have a link to request one of these online or do they have to go through college?

    if they have to go through college/uni do you have a link to NUS stating that they should be free, in which case ill ask my tutor why they are charging for them. Not in a malicious way i just wanna know :)[/quote]

    NUS democracy cards are completely free, though some colleges/sixth forms have the NUS logo printed on their own ID cards and so they act as those cards.

    NUS extra cards are just there to give more discounts in addition to ones you can get with standard ones- also part of the money charged for every card goes into the local student's union, so it helps them organise more things for students, which is no bad thing!
