Host families are all chosen with care by the school and live in the city’s residential districts, around 20-45 minutes by public transport from the school.

Usually called a WG (Wohngemeinschaft), this is a very popular way for students and twenty-somethings to live in Germany. As well as getting good value by living in a shared apartment (around 20–45 minutes from the school by public transport), you will get to know local Germans, whether university students, singles or couples. You will stay in a single furnished room and will share the bathroom and kitchen with your flatmates. Bed linen and bath towels are provided. Household Chores are shared between the roommates.

This residence provides the privacy of a single studio room in a buzzing inner-city atmosphere, located just a 25-minute walk from the school. The room comes fully equipped with a bed, ensuite bathroom, table, chair, and storage space. Linen is provided, but towels are not, both of which can be cleaned in the onsite facilities for a small fee. The residence offers free WiFi and there is no cleaning service provided, so students will need to take care of their own room and common areas. Students will need to cater for themselves using the pantry area with cooking facilities in their apartment. Overall, this student residence provides a convenient and affordable option for students looking for independent living arrangements close to school.
