Accommodation in Halle
Student dormitories are run by the Studentenwerk Halle (a student welfare organization). Rent for a single room is around 300 €. Since the number of available rooms is limited, make sure that you send your online application for a room in time. Please note that there is not any guarantee to get a place.
