Application

• Standard application procedure

  Application requirements
  All matriculated students of the Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen, the Technischen Hochschule Mittelhessen, the University of Applied Sciences Fulda and the Studienkollegs Mittelhessen are eligible to rent rooms. Where you live will depend on where you study (for example, students of the University of Applied Sciences Fulda only have the right to live in Fulda). Applicants must prove their student status with the respective enrolment certificate. Should you have not yet received your certificate, you will have to hand it in at the latest by the beginning of the semester.

  Application deadline
  Applications can be submitted at any time, there are no deadlines. Especially for the winter semester, it is advisable to submit your application as early as possible. At this time, due to the high number of new students, the demand for dormitory places is usually higher than the number of free places. Therefore, there is a waiting list.

  Application
  In order to apply for accommodation, you first have to fill in the online application for accommodation.

• Exchange students

  If you are an exchange student in an official mobility programme (ERASMUS+, ISEP, university cooperation programmes, and other types of exchange), a room in one of JLU's halls of residence will be reserved for you, as long as your online application reaches JLU by 15 January or 15 July for the following summer and winter semester respectively.
  You can apply for a room in one of the halls of residence by following a link you will get from JLU after your online registration and once you have been nominated by your home institution. Please do not use the regular forms for German students issued by Student Services if you are an exchange student!
  Please find further information on pricing and the dormitories here.
