You will need a semester card and a student ID-card.
The semester card proves that you are a student at OsloMet the current semester and that you have paid the semester fee which means you have the right to study at OsloMet, to follow lectures and sit for examinations.

Your student ID-card is only valid as a student ID outside of OsloMet if you also have your semester card and you need both cards to buy and use travel tickets with a student discount (e.g. at Ruter or NSB).
The pincode you receive when picking up your card can be used to access buildings after hours and during weekends.

You do not automatically receive a paper semester card. If you want one, you will need to order one through Studentweb. It will be sent to you by post and can take up to 7 days to arrive.
