Service-Package for Foreign Students

A practical and simple way of avoiding a lot of paperwork and time-consuming searching is the Service-Package offered by several student service organisations at the institutions of higher education. This eases you into everyday German life, saving you a lot of administrative hassle. The Service-Package covers three areas of student life in a cost-effective way – from accommodation and catering to a range of insurances. It is seen as an initial aid for new students from abroad and can therefore only be booked for a maximum of two semesters.

Depending on location, the Service-Package includes:

Single room in a halls of residence
Semester ticket for free use of public transport services (not including the German railways)
Social contribution costs which entitle students to free social and psychological counselling as well as free legal advice and student insurance (including insurance for accidents and theft) at the student services.
Supervision by tutors, trips and cultural events
Catering in the student restaurant (Mensa)

The following options are also available:

Health-insurance and nursing care-insurance (approx. Euro 300 per semester)

The cost of the Service-Package ranges from Euro 1,100 and 1,700 per semester depending on the student service organisation. All optional extras listed cost an additional amount. This is a limited offer and is based on the amount of rooms in the halls of residence that are available for this offer. You are entitled to apply for this offer once you have been accepted at the institution of higher education.
