The University also owns so-called “short-stay” apartments which can be let for one year only. They are intended for international employees who are staying for a period of less then one year. The rent varies from € 600 to € 1100 euros per month.
How to apply
Since the university cannot offer accommodation to all that apply, there is a waiting list for our properties. If you will be working at the University and you are interested in university managed accommodation, we advise you to apply for the waiting list.
