Renewing your membership

The best way to ensure that the benefits and the student card work is to renew the membership before the end of the season. By purchasing a multi-year membership, you don’t have to worry about the membership not being valid. If you need a sticker for your plastic student card, contact laureamko@laureamko. If something worries you, feel free to contact us in the chat or send our expert Riku a message.

If you have renewed your membership in the fall of 2018 or after and you notice errors in your information, you can edit your information yourself in the online store.

 

 
  • You can get added information through the Kide.app service at: https://kide.app/account
  • Adding information is easy: Log in and open your wallet, then go to the memberships tab and select Laureamko membership. Open the member information form and press the “edit” button at the bottom of the page. NOTE! Be careful that you change the name to your own membership information, not your own information! If you go to the edit view via a different way than via the pen that appears next to the membership, you are editing other information.

Transfer of membership and refund of membership fee

Transfer of Laureamko’s membership

Student union membership periods can be postponed if the member is absent. The transfer of membership periods can be requested in writing at [email protected]. The transfer of membership periods must be applied for in advance (no later than 31 July for the autumn semester and no later than 31 December for the spring semester) and the periods must not be transferred retroactively. The reason for the transfer is absence from studies. For other criteria, the Board decides on the transfer on a case-by-case basis.

Refund of Laureamko’s membership fee

You can resign from the student body at any time by notifying us in writing to [email protected].

The membership fee will not be refunded if the conditions of membership are still met. Unused membership fees can only be refunded if the student has resigned from Laurea University of Applied Sciences or graduated. A refund of the membership fee can be requested in writing at [email protected]. The membership fees are not retrospectively refunded.

The student union charges a handling fee of five euros for all refunds. The membership fee refund is calculated according to the membership and other fees for each year. If the student so wishes, a calculation of the formation of the membership fee refund will be provided to the student. Payments of less than 5 euros are non-refundable.
