Banking Information

In the orientation package, the faculty recommends that we open an account with the Postbank (which I think is a part of ING). I went down to the main branch to open my account. The line was super long - I guess there are tons of students wanting to open an account. Its a pretty good account too - virtually no fees attached.

To open the account, you need to bring your passport and certificate of enrollment from UM. It is a relatively easy process. Only you need to wait about 10 days before the account is actually open. They'll send you a letter with a place to go to pick up your debit card.
