Application and Deadlines
Applications are processed in the order in which they are received. Therefore, it is essential to keep the deadlines and, preferably, apply as early as possible. You are welcome - in fact encouraged - to send your Accommodation Application to the Housing Department before you send in the rest of your Registration Materials for other offices at LIFE. This way you may have a better chance of being placed in the type of accommodation you are hoping for. We must, however, stress that we have very few shared apartments, where the rent is low, so if this is what you are applying for, please note that chances are few, even if you do apply early.
Application Deadlines for Non-degree and Full-degree Students

Guests and PhD students should apply for accommodation at least two months before their expected date of arrival.
