The town doesn´t make a great first impression, but make an effort to get to know it properly. I gave up too soon! The uiversity is really great, very modern, well laid-out, right in the city-centre. The staff here are are a bit more involved with their students than in other German universities.

It is cheaper travelling with the train if you buy a Bahncard and make reservations 4 days earlier. Cheapest way travelling is also with the Mitfahrgelegenheid(to ride with somebody). Cheap and good food you can get at Menza (cafetaria)
