The seat and administration are in Paderborn.
As an institution under public law, it receives - like all student unions and student unions - part of its financial needs from tax revenues, another part comes from a compulsory contribution ("social contribution") of the students.

Over half of them work - mostly part-time - in the catering establishments.
