The bank card issued by the school is activated in the same way as the bank card applied by the school, and can be activated in many ways:

1. online banking: log in to the online banking corresponding to the bank card to activate and set the password.

2. Customer service activation: the cardholder can call the customer service phone of the bank, enter the card number of the bank card to be activated according to the voice prompt, enter the ID number, enter the validity period of the bank card, and then set the password and confirm it. At this point, the system will prompt that the bank card has been activated successfully.

3. Mobile banking: download and log in the bank card to activate.

4. Counter activation: the cardholder carries his ID card and bank card to the local bank outlet for activation.

I believe that freshmen will have a bank card issued by the school when they get the admission notice or just enter the school, and it is usually the card of four major banks (Bank of China, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Agricultural Bank of China or China Construction Bank). First of all, this card is usually a current savings card, which is mainly used to pay tuition and fees, scholarships and grants during your school days.

Another important function is that if you find some part-time jobs at school, for example, you will generally be asked to provide this bank card number issued by the school, and your salary will be credited to this card accordingly, so you should take good care of this card, unless there are special circumstances, don't cancel it at will.

Generally speaking, this card issued by the school is enough to collect living expenses or other transfers from parents, and it is also convenient, because generally speaking, if the school cooperates with this bank, there will be an ATM machine of this bank in the school, so it is very convenient for you to withdraw money or transfer money.

However, in one case, if you have a student loan, don't deposit your living expenses in this card when you start school, because the tuition fee charging system of the school can't tell whether a student has a loan or not, and it will deduct your living expenses as tuition fees, so it's best to get a new bank card.
