Teaching English as a Second Language (TESL) Students
TESL students differ slightly from other students in that they are registered under a different category in Banner.
TESL students must have an 'A' number to get an ID card. If the 'A' number is unknown, you can find it by doing a 'Person Search' in Banner. See the "Banner" section for more details (Chapter 6).
To verify registration in the TESL program, please do a Registration Query in Banner (see "Registration Query: TESL Students" in Chapter 6), making sure you are in the proper term for TESL. Some students will come with a completed form from the TESL Centre. This form also verifies registration.
Once the TESL patron's registration status has been verified, and if the patron does not have a TESL-ID form, have the patron fill out one of our regular Student ID forms. We still require this personal information, in order to create an account in Aleph. Ensure the patron's 'A' number and barcode are both filled out on the form. Make sure all necessary sections are completed and legible.

- TESL students are given full-time status and Undergraduate (01) privileges.
- If a student cannot be found in Banner, or does not have a form, an ID card cannot be made.
