Hi yall so I’m coming to Göttingen this October but don’t have any accommodation so far. So I joined some FB groups and I got reached out by this one person asking for my email so they could send me more details. So I shared my email.

They sent me the video of the apartment, rent, location and honestly it’s really decent considering the size of the apartment and rent. But since it looked too good to be true I asked whether they can do a live video call, send ownership certificate and I asked for any official listing.

They replied that they are travelling so can’t show the room live lmao. Then they said they want to rent out privately so that’s why they didn’t create official listing. But they did say that they can send out the ownership certificate and contract and I can pay the security deposit only after I sign the contract and pay rest in person.

Do you guys think it’s most likely a scam or it might be legit? Any replies would be very helpful :) Thanks for reading ik it was a long one 😭😭

Hi yall so recently I got an offer from UMG which I accepted and I’ve been looking for accommodation ever since. Recently I posted in a FB group and I got a contact from there. Upon contacting the owner she sent me the pics of the apartments and stuff and tbh the apartment looks rly nice (good location, decent enough rent too). But she wants me to pay deposit first before anything. She didn’t even disclose the full address of the property. She’s saying she will send everything after I paid the deposit. I feel this is kinda sus lol. So yea… thoughts?

Hii everyone! I’ll most prolly be coming to Göttingen (intl student) by mid September for my masters degree starting from October 2026. It’s my first time in Germany so not sure about the accommodation processes and choices asw. I’m wondering are there dorms I shd apply to or renting websites or smtg? How difficiult is it actually to get an accommodation and around when shd I start looking? Or are there any other channels I can look through for renting alone or with other ppl? Like Facebook or WhatsApp groups?

Thankss

Yooo I can’t believe I’m typing this lmao! I got into masters molecular medicine program in Uni of Göttingen. Given how avg my bachelors grade was and how the interview went and with 3% acceptance rate for this program I’d have never believed that I got in. 😭😭😭

If there’s anyone going to Göttingen this October for this program or in general, it’d be great to connect :))

Hey yall I’m a 22yo M a fresh graduate in biotech. I have this idea that I’m developing and planning to launch it as a startup in Hong Kong and apply for the HKSTP ideation program. I’m mainly looking for someone from the business side who understands “numbers”. But regardless of your background if ur interested pls dm and we can see where it goes :)

I just got an MSc conditional offer from UoE Synthetic biology and biotech but the only thing is the tuition fee is 45k GBP for me and idk if that much money is worth it for a degree of one year? I don’t even know after the MSc if I’ll end up in a PhD or not…

To the ppl studying there or alr graduated do you think this degree is worth it for the value of money? Will it be a good investment for the future?

Thankss im just so lost and confused rn

Hi guys, I recently got a condition offer from edin on masters in syn bio and biotechnology and the tuition fee is 45k GBP for intl students. The problem is that when I checked the scholarships, most of the valid scholarships had its deadlines already passed and therefore I have no scholarships to apply for. Do you guys know if the faculty has any scheme for funding or late scholarship or anything for students who get offer after the scholarship deadline? I’m thinking if I shd email the faculty and ask. Also I’d be glad to have any other ideas for alternate funding, etc.

Thankss
