• Exchange students (US Programme, ISEP, Erasmus+)

  TU Dortmund University has set up a cooperation agreement with the Studierendenwerk Dortmund and the International Office offers exchange students the service of reserving rooms in the dormitories of the Studierendenwerk. Kindly refrain from sending direct enquiries to the Studierendenwerk Dortmund.
  
  To reserve a room in the student residence, the form Accommodation Request must be completed and signed. It must then be uploaded to the application.
