Verein Mitgliedsbeitrag
This site is about payment of the OPH e.V. membership fee for ordinary members. The membership fee is currently 12 € per semester, or 2€ per month if you have moved in after the start of the payment period. The payment periods are from 1st of November until 30th of April and from 1st of May until 31st of October.
Payment Procedure
Use this template for the bank transfer (choose the appropriate semester according to the above).
Bank transfer is the only option. We do not accept cash. Partial refunds are not possible.
For upcoming semesters, Do not pay the membership fee in advance. Instead, wait for our announcement of the prepayment period, and then pay within the announced deadline.
Payment is done manually by you for each semester via the template, which also holds the sum of the membership fee for the relevant period. We announce the payment deadline for a new membership period within the first month of the new semester (April for summer semester, October for winter semester). The announcement is sent via mail from info@oph.rwth-aachen.de to all residents, and posted as elevator notices.
If you have questions about the membership fee or payment, ask the house speakers hs@oph.rwth-aachen.de.
FAQ
Q: I am a subtenant (Untermieter) / I have a subtenant (Untermieter). Who of us has to pay?
A: Only one of you has to pay the full fee (preferably the main tenant (Hauptmieter)), then you both are cleared for this semester. But you both have to hand in a registration form individually for legal reasons. Main tenants: For future reference, if you go away for a whole semester, as a member you have the option to change your membership into a resting membership (ruhende Mitgliedschaft) for that semester, and then don't have to pay for that period.
