====== Request an Account ====== You can request an account if you are enrolled in computer science as a major or minor subject. If you study computer science as a minor, you will need the signature of a lecturer. The request can be made electronically via [[https://startup.informatik.uni-bonn.de|startup]]. If you get a message that your student number is not valid, get a verification of your student status at [[https://studienservice.uni-bonn.de|Studienservice]], "Studienbescheinigung (auch für BAFöG)" and send it to [[gsg@informatik.uni-bonn.de]]. Our matriculation number database is only updated at the begin of each term and therefore may not be up to date. If you study computer science as a minor, you will need to print the request form, sign it and also get a signature from one of the lecturers. After you have all the signatures, send a scan of the form to [[gsg@informatik.uni-bonn.de]] or throw the paper into the request form postbox, located in the postal room. If this is your **first semester** and you are confused about the rooms, the pools and this whole procedure, take a look at the webpage of the [[http://www.fachschaft.info|Fachschaft]]. They do an introduction to all of this every year for all first semester students. During this event you will also have the opportunity to receive the access card.
