Reimbursement
The Semesterticket Schleswig-Holstein is based on the principle of solidarity: It must be paid by all full-time students of the participating universities. Reimbursement is therefore generally not possible.
However, in certain exceptional cases, reimbursement may be granted upon request, e.g. in case of severe disability, leave of absence or a semester abroad. For this purpose, the regulations of the regional Semestertickets apply; they are different at each university. The regulations of the university at which the student is enrolled are crucial.
Reimbursement applications can only be submitted to the university's AStA. Please note that applications must be made at the beginning of the semester; a subsequent reimbursement is not possible. If you have already ordered a Semesterticket Schleswig-Holstein as a paper ticket, it must be attached to the application.
Note: In the case a reimbursement is made, both the Semesterticket Schleswig-Holstein and the regional Semesterticket must be returned. The reimbursement is always valid for the entire semester.
