Student Housing

The cheapest accommodation option for students is a room in the student residences of the Studierendenwerk Heidelberg. Please note, however, that there may be longer waiting times to get a room.

Student residences from Studierendenwerk Heidelberg

Heilbronn University does not provide places in the halls of residence. Students must apply for a place in a hall of residence themselves.
This is also possible without admission, you can submit your letter of admission later (wohnen.hn.stw.uni-heidelberg.de).

  • Apply as early as possible. Applications received after July 15 (for the winter semester) or January 15 (for the summer semester) have far fewer chances, as there are usually long waiting lists for rooms in student residences.
  • To apply for a place in the halls of residence, you must complete an application form on this page. After submitting the online application, you will receive a confirmation link by e-mail. This link must be confirmed within 5 days, otherwise your application cannot be processed (please also check your spam folder).
  • The allocation of rooms and the sending of rental contracts usually begins on July 15 (for the winter semester) or January 15 (for the summer semester).
    Cancellations are generally not sent out.
  • Every 30 days, applicants receive an automated reminder email with a confirmation link. In the e-mail you will be asked whether you are still interested in a place in a hall of residence. As long as you confirm this link, you will remain on the waiting list. As soon as you no longer confirm the link, the Studierendenwerk assumes that you no longer require a place in a hall of residence. Your application will therefore be removed from the waiting list.
  • If you decide not to study at Heilbronn University, please inform the Studierendenwerk Heidelberg (https://www.stw.uni-heidelberg.de/en/node/49).

    Note for students studying at the Bildungscampus: The hall of residence at Cäcilienstraße 39 has very limited capacity and long waiting lists. Therefore, please also apply for other options (near the Sontheim campus and/or private offers).

Private student residences
Target group: Young adults with and without disabilities who would like to live together in a shared apartment close to the center of Heilbronn.

In a new small district, 42 residential units are being built in which people with and without disabilities will live together. In the planned building, people with disabilities and students will live together in inclusive shared apartments.

The students will live rent-free due to their support. This will be supplemented and accompanied by support staff from the "Offenen Hilfen"

Residents with and without disabilities are equal citizens of the new district.

People with disabilities are actively involved in the process from the very beginning. They contribute with their strengths and interests and thus shape the social space.

The neighborhood is actively shaped. Everyone has the same starting conditions, no one has to fit into already existing structures. In our opinion, this facilitates inclusive development and promotes empowerment and autonomy of the future residents.
