Accommodation
- The University of Graz does not own any dormitories and only very few apartment options. Student placement in university facilitated housing depends on the availability of rooms and apartments offered on the market.
- While the best option for housing is to make arrangement with one of the many dorms, it's important to be aware that dorms are privately owned by different companies - each with their own application procedures and registration.
- Therefore guests are strongly advised to make finding suitable accommodation a top priority.
Academic
- All exchange students must successfully complete a minimum of 16 ECTS per semester at University of Graz as their primary host institution.
