  Exchange students from partner universities can apply for accommodation in the student halls of residence operated by Studentenwerk Osnabrück (Student Services) through the International Office.
  Currently, there are furnished rooms in the following halls of residence:
  - Alte Fabrik

  IMPORTANT: Please do ONLY use the online application for accommodation and not the one that you can find on the Studentenwerk website.
  
  Rooms in the dormitories can only be rented for either six months or one year, meaning:
  - from 1 October to 31 March for the winter semester
  - from 1 April to 30 September for the summer semester
  - from 1 October to 30 September for an entire academic year
  
  Please read the information leaflet for more information.
  
  If the Studentenwerk Osnabrück receives more applications than rooms available, the International Office will attempt to arrange private accommodation for those whose applications had to be rejected.
