Student card

As a student you get to enjoy various discounts and benefits – but in order to be eligible, you need to prove your student status by showing a valid student card. After having paid the membership fee of your student union, you may download the Frank App on Google Play or AppStore to your phone to use your digital student card. If you want to order the physical card to show your student status, you will find the instructions at frank.fi/en/studentcard/. Once your student card is ready, Frank will deliver it to you at home. During the first weeks of autumn, this may take a while as every new student will be ordering their card simultaneously. After receiving the card, get an updated year tag from AYY and the KY Sticker. Ask your tutor about the temporary pick-up points or visit AYY’s office during the service hours. You can get the KY Sticker from the KY Office.
Different locations, one KY
Since the spring of 2019, the business students at Aalto University have been at two campuses: Otaniemi and Mikkeli. At the Otaniemi campus, Bachelor’s students at the School of Business carry out their studies at the Undergraduate Centre on Otakaari 1, along with students of many other Aalto disciplines. Master’s students’ home is the new School of Business at Ekonominaukio 1. If you want to meet other Aalto business students during the day, go check out KY Corner, abreak room located in the U-wing of the Undergraduate Centre. KY’s Office, Espilä, and event space Saha are both just a few minutes away from the Undergraduate Centre and right next to the new School of Business.
ESPILÄ Espilä is located at Konemiehentie 4, right opposite of KY’s event space Saha. Espilä is where the KY Board, employees and staff of KY Foundation work at. Espilä has conference rooms available for reservation and common working space open to all KY members to use. Don’t hesitate to drop in for a cup of coffee (it’s free for all KY members!) and say hi to the KY Board and employees!
When in need of KY-related assistance, turn to the KY member service. They will assist you in, for example, buying KY products, getting a KY sticker on your student card or going through the lost & found after a slightly longer and blurrier night. Member service can be reached during service hours by calling 040 353 8283, or by emailing at palvelu@ky.fi. You can, of course, always come by and get the help you need in person.
KY service hours at Espilä: Tuesday 15:00-17:00 Thursday 10:00-12:00
SAHA Saha is the event space and home to parties and KY activities in Otaniemi. Saha is located at Konemiehentie 1, right across the street from Espilä. The space is reserved entirely for KY’s use, and it is available for KY’s volunteers’ reservations.
KY CORNER KY Corner is a break room for all business students, conveniently located on the first floor of the U-wing in the Undergraduate Centre.
