In addition, a deposit of 300 € is required and rooms will be allocated around 6 weeks before the start of the semester. However, rooms are in high demand. You should apply as soon as you receive your notification of admission from Technische Hochschule Lübeck. | The Studentenwerk SH runs four residence halls in Lübeck (two on campus and two in the city center).

Furthermore, you share the costs for utilities. | On the private housing market, you can find everything from furnished single rooms to empty flats.

Living together in a flat-share is very personal, therefore, you will be interviewed by the other flatmates. They will be looking for a room mate that has similiar interest and might become a friend, not only a flat mate. Another option might be for you to rent a flat and look for flat mates to share the flat with. | Living together in a flat-share is very personal, therefore, you will be interviewed by the other flatmates.

If you cannot move-in on your day of arrival, we recommend to book a bed in one of the youth hostels or on short-term accommodation like airbnb or couchsurfing. Do not travel to Lübeck without having arranged accommodation for at least the first nights!
