Housing and Meals
Osnabrück University’s International Office will arrange for your accommodation. You will stay in a single room in either a dormitory or a carefully selected homestay. Please note that due to logistic reasons, it is not possible to make any commitments regarding your accommodation. 

Student dorm
Together with other Osnabrück and international students, you will be accommodated in a single room in a student dorm. Each room provides internet access and is equipped with a washing facility. Showers and toilets are shared with the fellow roommates of each corridor, and so is the kitchen where you can store foods in a fridge and prepare meals. The student dorms also feature common rooms for eventual get-togethers or facilities for outdoor activities. The laundry rooms provide washing machines and tumble dryers. Any student dorm can be easily reached by public transportation. 

Homestay
Staying with an Osnabrück family or in a shared flat with other Osnabrück students is a great way to enhance your German language skills! To make sure that you are in good hands, Osnabrück inspects all of the homestays thoroughly through home visits. Homestays provide you with a single room, shared facilities and full use  of the kitchen. All homestays are within reach of public transportation.
