Payment
Now you have to wait for the board to respond to your actions. if you registered at dms and handed in your subscription form, the board will accept you into the association. congratulations on becoming a member! The only thing left to do is to pay your fees. There are 2 different fees: association fee and contribution fee. You can visit the student union website to find all actual prices, fines and possible discounts.
Association Fee*
The association fee has to be paid on the Sports and Culture website. Go to "Shop" or "aanbod", "Subscription" and select the Association Fee. Once you've been accepted, you will see the Break-Even fee. This can be paid per year or half-year. Prices can be found on the right. This Fee can only be paid once you have been accepted into the association by the board.
Contribution Fee
The contribution fee is 34 per half-year. The board will take the amount from your bank-account, which you filled in in your application form. You will of course get a notice first. Prices can be found on the right.
Difference between Contribution and Association Fee
The association fee is a fee paid to the Student Union and helps paying the teachers & locations we use. Break-Even doesn't touch this money and you have to contact the SU/Sports and Culture to refund this.
The contribution fee is money for the association that the treasurer uses to create a budget and organise events, workshops and shows with.
* If you are not a student at the University of Twente, you will be asked at the Sportscentre to pay everything apart from the contribution fee in one go. Union cards are only for University of Twente students, so you will need to pay for the Campus Card.
