How will the pandemic impact my accommodation in Berlin?

Students residing at the Student Village or The Social Hub (formerly The Student Hotel) will be subject to the pandemic- and hygiene-related policies and regulations in force at these locations, as communicated before and/or upon arrival. Homestays feature policies and regulations developed jointly by the homestay hosts and the program in accordance with official hygiene and public health requirements; these will also be communicated before and/or upon arrival.

What is the program’s quarantine policy?

If a participant needs to be placed in quarantine upon arrival or after the semester gets underway, appropriate arrangements will be made, in accordance with the specific location where the student is living (homestay, Student Village or The Social Hub). Students housed independently would be required to make their own arrangements in this case, with assistance and advice provided by the program where possible. Note the information regarding food expenses under nr. 2 above. The program will ensure that all students in quarantine situations shall be able to continue and complete their academic work.
