Deggendorf Institute of Technology Courses and Fees 2025

• Off-campus. I stay in a private apartment managed by a local housing company on Bahnhofstraße 21 (Deggendorf). I found it by emailing housing companies/landlords and checking WG-Gesucht, ImmoScout24, and DIT student WhatsApp/Facebook groups. Rent: in the mid-€400s warm (€600 deposit, ); heating/water included, electricity & internet separate).
• The place is furnished (bed, desk, wardrobe), has a shared kitchen with basic appliances, a clean bathroom, laundry in the building, bike storage, and secure entry. Challenges: demand is very high around the semester start—listings go fast; some landlords ask for SCHUFA or German pay slips (hard for new students); replies can be slow; and getting the Wohnungsgeberbestätigung in time for city registration can be stressful.
• Recommendations: start early; write a short intro in German and English; attach passport/ID and enrollment letter in the first email; have the deposit ready; ask for a video tour or visit before paying; Never transfer money without a signed contract (prefer German IBAN); confirm what’s Warmmiete vs. extra costs (electricity/internet). Distance: about 15 minutes on foot to the DIT campus (5–7 minutes by bike); bus/train and supermarkets are close. Where most Indian students stay: shared WGs near campus or around the Bahnhof/city-center area; a few get into student dorms, which fill up quickly.

• I got my accommodation on a website called "WG Gesucht".
• Monthly rent is around 430 and it was a private room, a studio apartment with a balcony, a kitchen, a bathroom, a cupboard, a chair and a table.
• There was initially a lot of competition and a lot of scams where they didn't show the room photos and asked for a deposit beforehand.
• I would recommend them to start searching early, and do not transfer any amount of money before signing the contract.
• My accommodation is around a 20 mins walk from my university and usually the students stay near the city centre; if there is no option, then they would have to settle for any accommodation for the current semester and then they can change once they come here and spend a month or so.

• I found my accommodation through ebay Kleinanzeigen. Monthly rent was 350€/month. All basic amenities such as heating, a washing machine, and a kitchen with oven are included.

Professors and mentors are easy to approach. The canteen, often referred to as "Mensa," is available at every university, I believe. The university encourages innovation and ideas, providing a platform for students with startup ideas. The student union team organizes timely events for refreshments. Weekly sports activities are arranged for students, including swimming, badminton, football, table tennis, beach volleyball, chess, and more. Overall, I believe it's an ideal university for those interested not only in studies but also in sports and fitness.
