Slice is free of charge.

HSL public transportation discount

Students can get the discount forms for HSL at the EBS Helsinki office. The discount form is taken to a HSL service point, where the student discount is installed on a physical travel card (matkakortti). The transport company might have their own additional conditions (age, municipality of residence etc.) which you can check with them.

The HSL student ticket did undergo changes as of 1 January 2022, but these changes do not apply to the students of EBS Helsinki. The students of EBS Helsinki can still buy a student ticket at a discount on the HSL card by visiting an HSL service point. Keep in mind that the student discount entitlement must be renewed annually.
