Studierendenkonto und Ausweis

You can update the validity imprint of your chip card independently and at any time during the opening hours of the university buildings at one of the validation stations.

A validation station is located at each

• in the waiting area of the Division of Student Affairs in the Auditorium Maximum building (upper entrance to the Audimax)
• in the Gräfin-Dönhoff-Building (in the atrium, left below the screen)
• in the Main Building (to the right of the main staircase)
.

In the Gräfin-Dönhoff-Building and in the entrance area of the Main Building you will also find top-up stations where you can top up your chip card with money to make copies or pay in the canteen.

• Take at least as much care with your student ID card as you do with your EC card.
  
  
• The rewritable strip is very sensitive. If possible, protect the card with a transparent plastic cover (hard plastic covers are recommended).
  
  
• The card must not be bent, perforated or glued. Excessive heat (microwave) and heavy mechanical stress (washing machine) should also be avoided.
  
  
• The loss of the ID card must be reported immediately to the Matriculation Office and the University Library in order to prevent misuse of the card by third parties.
  
  
• Before travelling, check that the validity imprint on the card is up to date and clearly legible. If this is not the case, please update the imprint at a validation station. Any penalties for "fare dodging" cannot be covered by the university.
  
  
• If the money chip has not been topped up and the money has still been debited from your account, please contact the Student Union immediately. Later complaints cannot be recognised.

Please contact the Matriculation Office.

Here you will find the application for a new chip card.
