Finding accomodation in the university towns of the Greater Region

The ways of obtaining access to university accommodation differ depending on the country. The Greater Region is no exception to this. So to avoid having to run an obstacle course in your search for accommodation, you need a single objective: to identify the right person to talk to who will be able to give you advice and good ideas.

In Germany it is traditionally the Studentenwerke which manage the stock of student residences, and they also have good ideas on how to find a flat share, a room in someone’s house or an apartment with all comforts. The Studierendenwerk of the University of Kaiserslautern, the Studierendenwerk of Saarland University or the Studierendenwerk of the University of Trier are your sources of all the useful information you need to obtain accommodation in the town concerned.

In Liège, you should contact the accommodation service of the University of Liège directly: they manage the student halls of residence and will thus be able to guide you in your search.

In France, it is the CNOUS (Centre National des Œuvres Universitaires et Scolaires) and its network of CROUS (Centre Régional des Œuvres Universitaires et Scolaires) which deal with all the public student residences. All the information you need to find accommodation in Nancy or Metz is available on the website of the CROUS of Nancy-Metz.

In Luxembourg, it is the university itself which manages a certain number of student residences. The accommodation unit of the SEVE (Service des Études et de la Vie Étudiante) is your contact point here.
