Student ID Card
Your student ID card is an essential tool throughout your studies, offering a wide range of practical functions that support your daily life on campus.
You will receive your personalised student ID card during the second Orientation Day, ensuring you are fully equipped as you begin your time at Hochschule München. Find out more!
- User ID for the libraries
- Access to buildings, laboratories and computer rooms
- Payment in the cafeterias of Hochschule München
- Login for online services (e.g. exam registration)
- Identification during examinations
You can use your student ID card to pay in the cafeterias – you just need to load money onto your ID card. You can do this at several top-up stations located in the university buildings. ID cards can be loaded using cash (notes only) or current bank account cards (German accounts only).
If you are staying longer that one semester your student ID card can be "validated", i.e. the card’s validity period is extended. Following successful re-registration, the validity period can be reprinted on the card using a special machine approximately one week before the new semester starts. Validation machines can be found in the following buildings:
Campus Lothstraße
Lothstr. 34 Building A, hallway on the ground floor (opposite room A 23)
Lothstr. 64 Building R, in the left center of the entrance area
Campus Karlstraße
Karlstr. 6 Building B, main entrance near the elevator
Campus Pasing
Am Stadtpark 20, next to the self-service terminal near the Cafeteria or at the entrance Avenariusstr.
If you lost your student ID card, you need to inform the Library in person to prevent any misuse. You can find the service hourse on the website.
If your student ID card is lost or damaged, you can get a replacement at the following times and locations:
• Wednesdays from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon at Lothstraße 34, Room A22 (ground floor), and
• Thursdays from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. at Lothstraße 34, Room A33/34 (ground floor).
If the card is lost or damaged due to your own fault, a replacement fee of €10.00 applies.
Please note: According to § 5 Abs. 4 Satz 3 u. 4 ABOB You are liable for any damage resulting from a delay in reporting the loss.
Example: If someone finds your student ID card and borrows books from the library without returning them, the cost of the books will be charged to your account.
If you have lost your PIC you must apply for a new one at the IT Services using the form "PIC-Neuvergabe-Formblatt". A new PIC will then be sent to you.
If you are leaving Munich and would like to withdraw the remaining money from your student ID card, please go to the Information Point of Studierendenwerk (ground floor in the cafeteria, Lothstr. 13d).
The Infopoint is open every weekday from 11am to 1pm.
