How to order a student card?

Ordering

For the order form you will need your student number. You will find it in the personal settings of your profile in Peppi, in grey colour in the top left corner. You can check the number in Peppi a little before the start of a semester.

The facial image

The picture for your student card should be a close-up of your face, with the face fully visible and easily identifiable. The picture does not have to be an official passport photo, but it needs to be similar to a passport photo.

The delivery

You will get an email when your card is ready. After that, you can collect the card from Student Union Kaakko’s office or you can reply to that email and ask us to send the card to your home address. Mailing the card is the student’s responsibility, and cards or stickers lost in the mail will not be replaced. When mailing the card, a sticker indicating the validity of the membership term will be provided. The validity of the sticker may not necessarily match the paid membership period.

You can verify the sticker’s validity at the student union’s customer service.

Note! Postage to home address costs 5€.  If you have not paid the postage yet, you can pay it HERE
