Rent deposit

A deposit amounting to 300 EUR has to be paid on conclusion of the tenancy agreement, which is returned without interest after the end of the tenancy. The interest accrued during the tenancy period is invested in maintenance of the respective student residence.

Duration of housing

The tenancy agreements are concluded for a period of one semester until the maximum period of residence of three years is reached. The three-year time limit is intended to enable as many students as possible to find a favourable place in a hall of residence (rotation principle).

An extension for one year beyond the maximum period of residence of three years can only be granted to those who:
- have registered for the final part of an examination procedure at their university at the time the contract expires,
- has been constructively involved in the administration of a student hall of residence (e.g. tutor) during the term of the tenancy
- would be unreasonably burdened by the move and can prove this (e.g. acute illness, but not financial reasons or housing shortage in the city)
