Affordable housing and living

No tuition fees

There are no tuition fees at EUF (except for a one-off registration fee of €60). However, you must pay a semester fee each semester (i.e., every six months) (current prices can be found on our organizing your studies page). This provides a Germany-wide ticket for public transportation. Please note that you must have health insurance in order to study. In addition, you will probably need a laptop, and will have to purchase a few textbooks.

Affordable living

A room in a shared apartment (WG) in Flensburg costs on average around €388 per month (source: NDR.de). This can, of course, vary depending on the location and amenities. Compared to many other larger cities in Germany, however, the cost of living in Flensburg is quite affordable.

Or would you prefer to live right on campus?

You will find several student residences run by the Studentenwerk directly on campus.

EUF has five different such facilities, four of which are located on campus. There are different living models: 2 to 4-person shared flats and single apartments. The rooms are partly furnished, but there are also unfurnished rooms.

Life on the fjord

Flensburg – a vibrant city with a diverse cultural scene

The serene beauty of the fjord and stunning old-world buildings of the historic city center give the city a special charm. From small boutiques and cafés to the lively shopping street, there is much to see and experience in Flensburg.

Food and snacks on campus

On campus, you can get a cheap meal at the main cafeteria (Mensa) or any of several cafes. Lunch menus change daily and usually start at less than 3 euros for students.
