The Servicepaket for International Exchange Students
The "Servicepaket" is a service provided by the Studierendenwerk for students who are participating in the universities’ international exchange programmes.
Servicepaket rooms are allocated exclusively by the universities' international offices. The universities' allocation processes vary; so please contact the person in charge at your university if you're interested or if you have any questions regarding the application.

How to apply for the Servicepaket
Please note that there is only a very limited number of Servicepaket rooms available. Therefore not all exchange students can be offered accommodation in our halls of residence.
Servicepaket rooms are allocated exclusively by the universities' international offices. Please get in touch with the international office of your university.
If you weren’t offered a Servicepaket room in one of our halls by your international office, please be aware of the fact that it's quite difficult to find accommodation in Munich. For this reason, we also offer advice on other accommodation options and support our students in finding private accommodation.
