HOUSING

Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? The accomodation is ok, and considering the quantity of international students living up there it is a pretty good way to make friends and enjoy the student life.
Personal comments:
Be careful, one must abide by the German customs, for instance actively participating in keeping the common places clean! good places to make parties, and barbecues!
