CaptureME is used by all new students to submit a photo for their first UTS College Student Card. You can upload your photo using a computer, tablet or smart phone. Simply follow the steps below.

How to upload a photo

  1. Visit the CaptureME page: https://captureme.uts.edu.au/
  2. In the ‘User’ field, enter your UTS  Student email. In the ‘Password’ field, enter your UTS Student Email password. Confirm the reCAPTCHA details and click ‘SUBMIT’.
  3. You will then be taken to a screen with a Privacy Policy notification. Read and agree to the Privacy Policy before continuing.
  4. You will then be taken to the ‘Submit your photo’ page. There are two options to submit a photo:
    • Click on the ‘Upload a photo’ tab, then click on ‘Choose a photo’. Once an image is selected it is placed on the page. A green tick on the right, smaller picture means the photo is acceptable.
    • Click on the ‘Take a photo from a webcam’ tab. Your internet browser will detect the camera installed. Take the photo when ready. A red x will appear if no face is detected. If you see an Adobe Flash Flyer Settings notification, click ‘Accept’ to proceed.

When choosing or capturing a photo, keep the following in mind:

  • the photo captures the front of your face
  • your head is in a straight position
  • remove any hats, headwear, glasses or scarfs (If you usually cover your head for religious reasons, or you wear glasses, your photo can include these items.) Head coverings should be worn in such a way as to show the face from the bottom of the chin to the top of the forehead.
  • eyes should be clearly visible e.g. not covered by hair.
  • eyes looking straight into the camera
  • face should cover at least 25% of the photo
  • leave space around face area
  • photo file size should be at least 320 pixels high x 240 pixels wide.

  2. Click use this photo once done.
