Hallo Leute!

My name is Suzy   I'm applying to study in Stralsund, Germany for the Winter semester 19/20 and I would like to stay in student halls of residence for a low rate. Due to their limited places, I registered and I am trying to make a reservation for a place to stay there. They have sent me an email as below:

I would appreciate it if you could let me know what I should do next? I should wait or should I email them to ask about an offered place (since I have already received das Zulassung with the enrollment date)
Danke im Voraus!

They write that you will get an answer yes or no with in 6 weeks. There is nothing for you to do and probably nothing else to be done to influence their decision. You'll just have to hope for the best. When there is limited places it can be that not all qualified people get a place.

Thank you Tomin!!! 

I would add that foreign students are probably given higher priority than locals. The reason being is that it is much easier for a German student to find accommodation than someone far away. I am setting a link to an English language page for Stuttgart University that gives good tips for students to find accommodation that are probably relevant no matter which university one chooses. I was surprised to see mentioned that they have housing for 7200 students – but this is out of over 30,000 and some of the places are more than 40 KM away.

well I'm a bit worried since there is more or less than 270 places in student halls. The HS did recommend a few places as well but student house is the cheapest I guess
