Test
NSE Package received in the mail after you have submitted your photo for your NUFlashard and registered for your attendance to New Student Enrollment
Once you open your NSE Package you will see your NUFlashCard. There is a red pull tab for you to remove the top layer of your pacakage
Once the top layer has been removed you are greeted by a WELCOME and a table of contents of what is included in your package
After lifting the WELCOME tab you will see your gifts which include your parking permit, your meal tickets for you and your guests, your name tags and a lanyard.
Major Issues
- One of the major issues we have with our NSE Package test model is the flashdrive on the NUFlashCard doesn't actually slide in and out like it is suppose to.
- The University can't legally send out your ID Card in the mail because it could be a breach of information and security for the student.
