Upload your photo
Upload a passport-style photo to Sydney Student that meets the following photo guidelines:
- Photos must be cropped slightly above your head to the middle of your chest and your whole head must be visible
- Please use a clear, plain background (light backgrounds work best). Anything in the background may result in your photo being rejected. The photo must not be too dark or too light, with darkened or washed-out colours
- All photos must be in full, natural colour
- Caps, hats, dark/tinted glasses should not be worn (religious headwear is accepted but it cannot cover your face)
- You must be positioned directly facing and looking into the camera, with no tilted head, turned head/body. Avoid glare/shadows over your face
- Digitally altered photos are not allowed. This includes colour correction, blurring, and any other alteration
- Photos with red eyes caused by the camera flash will be rejected
- It must be an original photo (no photos of photos)
- Ensure that the photo is not taken from too far away. Resolution of your photo should not be too low, as this will not produce a clear image for your ID card.
You'll be able to do this:
- after you’ve completed all the steps to enrol; you’ll be prompted by Sydney Student to add your photo
- at any time after enrolment by logging in to (go to 'My studies', then 'Enrolment' and select 'Upload photo').
If you have issues uploading your photo, we recommend using a Mozilla Firefox (Windows) or Safari (MacOS) browser. If this doesn't work, visit the Jane Foss Russell Cards Hub (G02, level 3) or contact us online through our .
