Online Private Accommodation Service of the Studierendenwerk
The Studierendenwerk Würzburg setup the web page "Search for Private Rooms" to assists students of the Universities in Aschaffenburg, Bamberg, Schweinfurt and Würzburg in finding accommodation. The web page publishes available accommodation offers for the corresponding city and the region. In general, offers are daily updated from Mondays to Fridays.
The Studierendenwerk only forwards information from landlords and will not assume liability for the accuracy of the information, cannot provide any additional information or make any commitment. Whether price and value of the accommodation offered are in reasonable proportion, cannot be verified by the Studierendenwerk.

Create new living space and receive support, stay at home and offer a home. These considerations are behind the project "Accommodation for Help - Intergenerational Housing Communities", which has been started by the city of Bamberg and the Studierendenwerk Würzburg in the summer semester of 2011.
The idea is simple: Elderly people, families or people with disabilities offer students free or cheap accommodation and get help in exchange. Whether help with gardening work or grocery shopping, assistance in the home or child care - the rule of thumb is one hour of work a month for one square meter of living space. Plus a share of the additional charges.
The housing communities are arranged and cared for by the counseling office for accommodation (Wohnberatungsstelle) of the city of Bamberg. Prospective tenants can register here. Before laying down the mutual agreements in a rental contract, the staff members Nicole Orf and Denise Neller advise both parties to take some time to get to know each other and exchange wishes and expectations.

University students who are not economically dependent on another independent household, usually their parents' household, may be eligible for social housing.
If you are interested in living in social housing, you must request a certificate of eligibility („Wohnberechtigungsschein“) from the competent authority (see below). This is due to the fact that you will only be considered for social housing if your income is less than a certain threshold. If you do not have a certificate of eligibility, you will not be considered for social housing.
