## About

Reutlingen is a small-to-mid-sized city in Baden-Württemberg, south of Stuttgart. It's an industrial town with textile and engineering heritage. Living costs are reasonable for the region — around €450–550 per month for shared housing. The local economy is built on small and mid-sized companies (Mittelstand), with strong jobs in engineering, design, and manufacturing.

## Strengths

- At €3,000 per year, tuition is far below typical private-university rates, making it competitive for international students in Germany.
- IELTS 6.0 entry threshold is accessible for CIS applicants without advanced English preparation.
- The four-field mix of business, computer science, engineering, and design covers high-demand labour-market areas in the EU.
- Reutlingen sits in Baden-Württemberg's small and mid-sized companies (Mittelstand) heartland, offering strong internship access to mid-size industrial and tech firms.
- A German degree gives full EU academic recognition and access to an 18-month post-study job-seeker visa.
- Germany allows international students 120 full days or 240 half-days of paid work per year, supporting part-time income.

## Watch out for

- Baden-Württemberg charges non-EU students an extra €1,500 per semester in state fees, adding €3,000 per year on top of listed tuition.
- Non-EU school leavers whose certificate is not recognised may need to complete a preparatory year (Studienkolleg) before starting a degree programme.
- Daily life, administration, and many bachelor courses run in German; limited German skills will constrain social integration and programme choice.
- Germany requires proof of funds via a blocked account (Sperrkonto) — roughly €11,904 for one year — before a student visa is issued.
- Reutlingen is a mid-size city; the local job market for graduates is narrower than in Stuttgart or Munich, requiring commuting for some roles.

## Accommodation

- **University dormitory:** yes
- **Dormitory cost:** €280–400
- **Private housing:** €400–510
- **Rent figures describe:** the city of Reutlingen
- **How to apply:** Apply exclusively via the online application portal on my-stuwe.de (Studierendenwerk Tübingen-Hohenheim); the Studierendenwerk manages several halls in Reutlingen (Pestalozzistraße 41, 63/65, and 67), and submitting multiple applications does not improve chances.
- **Notes:** Studierendenwerk Tübingen-Hohenheim runs several halls in Reutlingen (Pestalozzistraße 41/63/65/67); rooms range from shared-flat singles (from €267/month) to studio apartments (up to €374/month warm rent). Demand is high, so apply as early as possible — the summer semester intake faces less competition than winter.
