You will find a number of student residences in Regensburg. Several residences are run by the "Studentenwerk" (official accommodation service), who provides the International Office with a number of rooms for international students. International students send their housing application for residences of the Studentenwerk to the International Office. Students with German nationality need to apply directly to the Studentenwerk.
For most private student residences you will have to apply directly to the individual residence.Please see list of residences below.

The Studentenwerk is a public organization that is responsible for all kinds of advisory services. It also runs the Mensa (main cafeteria) and several student residences.
The rooms in the student residences are only for the registered students. When you apply for a room you have to indicate your programme of studies.
Foreign students, specially from far away countries, are given priority. If you want a room you have to apply early enough at the IO (International Office). As there are more applications as available rooms we cannot guarantee the accomodation. The decision may even be made shortly before the beginning of the semester.
Half of the residences are coordinated by the Studentenwerk. The prices range between approx. 150,- and 300,-€ per month. For double rooms between approx. 128,- and 220,-€ per month and person. There is only one application form for all residences of the Studentenwerk, which is sent with the letter of acceptance. You can request it at the IO as well.
Apart from the student residences of the Studentenwerk, Regensburg also counts with private student residences. You need to apply directly to these residences, since each one has an independent administration. You will receive an address list of the private student residences with your acceptance letter or you may access it here.
