Accommodation

Address

The International Office has reserved a room for you in a student dormitory. The exact address of your room (dormitory, room number) can only be provided upon arrival in Regensburg for organizational reasons.

Facilities/Furnishing

• All rooms are single rooms.
• Not all rooms have their own bathroom.
• They are distributed throughout the Regensburg city area.
• They all have standard furnishings (bed, closet, desk and desk chair).
• The dormitories are for mixed genders which means that students of all genders live together in a dormitory, and share the kitchen, bathrooms and other shared facilities.
• Special requests can only be taken into consideration in particularly justified cases (please indicate these in your application).
• After you have placed your room reservation, the IO will assign a room to you.

On the website of the Studentenwerk Niederbayern/Oberpfalz you can see photos of rooms in the Studentenwerk dormitories.

Cooking and eating

The room rental prices do not include food and there are no cafeterias in the dormitories.

Students can cook their own meals or eat in the Mensa on Campus (at lunchtime). The eating halls at Regensburg University of Applied Sciences (OTH) also offers dinner.

In most dormitories you share the kitchen with other students (about 6 - 12 students).

You will need to bring this with you or buy it in Regensburg:

• Cooking utensils such as pots
• Crockery and cutlery
• You can buy a basic set in any larger supermarket for about € 50.

Washing

There are washing machines and dryers in the dormitories. Irons are not available.

Students who are nominated after our nomination deadline or submit the documents after the deadline can usually no longer be provided with a room through the IO. This also applies to students who come to Regensburg only for a short time or outside the regular semester times.

These students must look for a room on the private housing market themselves.
