During Enrolment

During enrolment a picture of you will be taken which will appear on your student ID, the OHMcard.

Besides the OHMcard you will receive a computerized printout with enrolment slips (Immatrikulationsbescheinigungen), and a data sheet. Please immediately check your personal information on the data sheet, and inform the employees about any discrepancy.

Should you need additional enrolment slips, e.g.: for various municipal administrative offices or for receiving reduced fares on the public transportation system, you may print them yourself - about two days after enrolment - using our Online-Services.

At the bottom of your data sheet you will find your user name and password for accessing your personal account on the university's main server, as well as your OHM email address which will have the following format:
[Your last name, two initials of your first name and several digits]@ohm-hochschule.de
(For example, student John Wayne gets: WayneJo12345@ohm-hochschule.de)

You can access your emails - about two days after enrolment - using
1. The direct link: http://my.ohm-hochschule.de   or
2. Via www.ohm-hochschule.de (> für Studierende und Personal > Online Services > E-Mail in my.ohm)
