Update: Semesterticket counts as 9-Euro-Ticket – New tips for reimbursement
Until October 31, students in Thuringia can still get a pro-rata refund of their semester ticket fee. Students can get their money quickly and easily at the canteen cashier. To transfer the money to a bank account, reloaders are available in the dining halls. These are now marked with stickers. The transfer is possible at the machines marked »thoska aufwerten und auszahlen«.
The Studierendenwerk Thüringen would also like to make it possible for students who are currently not at their place of study to receive a refund:
Assign a trusted person to have the money posted to your thoska. Give this person your thoska and a written power of attorney. By signing this document, you confirm that the trusted third party is authorized to charge the money to the thoska. Please use the sample form and contact your information center of the Studierendenwerk Thüringen (or in Nordhausen the staff of the Student Housing Department, Mr. Fritsch or Mr. Roloff). It is not possible to charge the thoska of the person of trust.
If this is not possible in individual cases, we will extend the deadline for you. Please send an e-mail to: neun-euro-ticket-thoska[at]stw-thueringen.de. Please briefly describe the reason why you and a trusted person cannot be present until the end of October. Please also indicate the month until which you will be able to make an on-site reservation again. Be sure to include your first and last name as well as your matriculation number.
