What is the "Arrival-Service"?

Arrival-Service means:

We organize the key of your room in the dormitory.
A student gives a personal and warm welcome to you.
We help with all things you need to organize, when you move in (pay deposit, sign contract, ...).
You get a first orientation in the dormitory and the surrounding area.
in Kiel:
- A student will pick you up from the central station, bus station or port and will bring you to the dormitory by car.
- You can buy bedlinen for 10,-€ (pillow, blanket, bed sheet, douvet cover). Please note: The rooms in our dormitories do not have any of these things.

The Arrival-Service is free of charge.

Please notice: Due to the spread of the coronavirus, registrations for the arrival-service are no longer possible.

For whom?

All international students can register for the Arrival-Service,

and

if they arrive, when the Wohnheimverwaltung (Housing Department) and the caretakers of the dormitories are not available any more (that is mostly in the afternoon, evening, at night, at weekends and on holidays).

Busses and trains run like on Sundays.

All shops, offices and departments are closed, also the caretakers of the dormitories and the housing department.
