The CampusCard you received should always be treated and stored carefully because of its multifunctional purpose (integrated chip, TRW imprint). It is recommended to always keep your CampusCard inside the slipcover that comes with it. Mechanical pressure (bending or curving the card) is to be avoided. Non-observance can lead to damage and malfunction of the card. The cost of issuing a replacement card in the event of self-inflicted damage shall be paid by the card user.

The following informations are visible on the surface of the CampusCard:

• Last Name, First Name
• Matriculation number
• Semester ticket
• Library number / Barcode
• Access number

The following informations are saved on the MIFARE-chip:

• Matriculation number
• Library number
• Access number
• PKZ (Personal status: Student, Staff, Guest)
• Semester ticket Information (valid from / to)
• Period of Validity

The application for the CampusCard is made automatically when the application documents are received by the Jade University. An exception is the application for a replacement chip card.

Validation means that information about the general validity period of the CampusCard is printed on the TRW strip of the card front at a self-service machine (validator/validating machines).

The validating machines can be found here:

• at the study location in WHV: Main building and south building
• at the study location in OL: Main building
• at the study location in ELS: Weserstraße 52

The Jade University student ID cards can be revalidated regardless of where you are studying (Elsfleth, Oldenburg or Wilhelmshaven), as the system is one and the same.

The semester ticket function of the CampusCard has been replaced by the Deutschlandticket (ENG: “Germany ticket”) via the “RIDE” app since the winter semester 2024/25: Semesterticket

The CampusCard of the Jade University is made of PVC plastic with ISO standard/credit card (86 x 54 x 0.76mm). A MIFARE chip and TRW film are also manufactured.

The TRW foil (thermo-re-writable) film is a component of the CampusCard. A two centimeter wide strip (TRW strip) is applied to the front and enables the renewal (validation) of all changeable data/functions (e.g. semester ticket (yes/no), general period of validity).

The rewritable TRW-film can be applied up to 500 times.

The CampusCard can be activated as a library card in the libraries of the respective study location.

Please contact the library staff for help.

A color passport photo or application photo with a maximum size of 10 MB in jpg or jpeg format can be used, provided that the complete head is visible on the picture.

The use of photos, photographed or copied from identity cards (ID card, passport,…), is prohibited.

When applying for matriculation, the picture can be uploaded directly in Jade eCampus. While doing so, the browser Mozilla FireFox should be used on the PC, since other browsers - as well as cell phones - may cause problems.

A later upload is possible with the following steps: After logging in to Jade eCampus, go to the StudyService via the „Mein Studium“ (ENG: “My studies”) tab. After switching to the „Meine Daten“ (ENG: “My data”) tab, click on „Bearbeiten Sie Ihre Daten“ (ENG: “Edit your data”). Now scroll to the bottom of the page. There you will find the „Bild hochladen“ (ENG: “Upload image”) section. After uploading, press the „Speichern“ (ENG: “Save”) button.

The first issue of the CampusCard is free of charge. The issue of a replacement card may be subject to a charge.

If the CampusCard is lost or is no longer functional, the owner should arrange for the card to be blocked immediately in their own interest

You can request a card blocking via the Helpdesk. Please state “card loss” as the reason and indicate whether a new card is required or whether your studies will be terminated.

The issuing of the replacement card only happens after a successfully initiated lock.

When Requesting a new CampusCard: The form can be found on the website of the I- and P-Office.|Request for replacement card]].

Upon completion of studies: A written card cancellation request is required. No new CampusCard will be issued; only the discharge certificate will be handed out. The form can be found on the website of the I- and P-Office.

The issuance of a replacement card in case of own fault is chargeable and costs 15,00 EUR. Any remaining balance (purse) will be controlled by the Studentenwerk Oldenburg in a separate process.

The credit balance can be refunded by the Studentenwerk Oldenburg in its own procedure. To do this, you can apply for a refund online: https://www.jade-hs.de/swo-refund

Important! Since the balance check can take up to four weeks, you can enter a different e-mail address for payment notification in the event of imminent exmatriculation.

Yes, the period of validity of the semester ticket imprint can be displayed for two consecutive semesters.

You can update your semester ticket for the coming semester just ten days after the end of the re-registration period.

In this case, there might be a problem with the chip number of your CampusCard. Its purpose is to allocate the print order to the user. Please visit the computing center and ask for help.

This indicates that the card has a block on the wallet. Blocking the wallet will cause the card to be rejected at all machines that communicate with the wallet (upgraders, rebookers, printer terminals, washing machines, cup machines, canteen checkouts, etc.).

In this case, the card must be returned to the last place of use (machine, cash register, terminal or cup machine) to unblock it.

I get the feedback that when printing via the multifunction devices my “Karte nicht mehr gültig” (ENG: “card is no longer valid”) or also when rebooking plotter quota the info that the “Kartendatum abgelaufen” (ENG: “card date has expired”).

Please come to the university computing center for further troubleshooting.

Yes, the virtual queues can easily be connected to the notebooks via WLAN. However, printing to the multifunctional devices requires a Jade University account. The instructions and further information can be found in the section “Multifunctional devices-->Setup".

This could have to do with the chip serial number: This is used to assign print jobs to individual users. Please go to the computing centre and ask for help.

All print jobs are given an “incoming time stamp” and are available for pickup in the queue for 72 hours. After 72 hours the printing jobs will be deleted.
