Student ID

 

All new students* are given a student ID card by the Erasmus Office when the semester begins. The cards may be handed out on the orientation day or later in exchange of a signature.

 

Students are required to have these cards on them at all times whilst on campus. Failure to do so may result in not obtaining access to the campus and facilities. 

Although to enter the campus and some facilities - such as the library, students just tap the card on the toll gates, to benefit from some services - such as the shuttles and the dining halls, students need to add funds (transfer money) to their cards.

 

* Please make sure that you upload a clear and color passport photo to your account at https://ytuerasmus.yildiz.edu.tr/ for your student ID card. Make sure you look straight ahead and that your face is clearly and fully visible without shady or overexposed places. Do not upload a copy of your passport or selfie.

 

Adding Funds to the Student ID Card

To use some of the facilities and services, you will need to pay via your student ID card. Below are some ways to add funds to your student ID.

 

 
1. VIA STUDENT BANK ACCOUNT
 

Linking Your Student ID to İşBank Account

Students can open a free student account and link their debit/credit card with their student ID via the machines called Cüzdanmatik near the dining halls. After linking the cards, some money should be deposited to the student ID. Students interested in opening a bank account should obtain a tax number and visit the İşbank office on the campus.
