For registered students LMU offers some scholarship programmes. Note that funds are quite limited and grants are competitive.


ACCOMODATION

Finding affordable accomodation in Munich can be quite a challenge. Please note that LMU Geophysics is in no position to provide help in this respect. Also note that, contrary to other countries, German universities typically do not operate dormitories. You will need to find accommodation on your own.

The following information by LMU concerning Housing in Munich might be of help in this process. Additionally you might check the information by TUM on how to find accomodation.
