When?: 2-3 weeks before you leave

In order to get your security deposit for your dormitory room back, you need to make an appointment for moving out of your room with the Hausmeister (dorm manager). Please make the appointment as early as possible – two weeks before your departure at the very latest.

You have received an email from the Studierendenwerk containing a document about the transfer of the security deposit which you must hand in before the appointment with the Hausmeister. For the appointment, you will also need the "?bergabezertifikat" (certificate of delivery), that you received when you moved into your dormitory room.

Please clean your room thoroughly! If you leave something in your room behind, or if it is not completely cleaned, the Studierendenwerk will have to clean it again. The cost of this is rather expensive and will be deducted from your security deposit.

Please plan accordingly on your day of departure so that you will have enough time. The inspection of your room can take from 15-60 minutes. If you are not fluent in German, we suggest that you ask your Buddy to be present as most of the Hausmeister are not fluent in English. To avoid any dispute later, it's important that you can communicate about possible defects of the room (if it has to be painted again etc.) at the time of the hand over. Please make sure to get a copy or at least take a photo of the Abnahmeprotokoll (certificate signed at the hand-over about the condition of the room).

?

If everything is ok with your room, the security deposit which you paid at the beginning of the semester will be transferred back to your account (that you submitted to the Studierendenwerk) about 3 months after the semester ends.

Necessary documents for the appointment:
- "?bergabezertifikat" (hand-over certificate)

When?: 2-3 weeks before you leave

?

Before your departure, you need to terminate your German health insurance if you have one. If you have registered for your health insurance via an online provider, you can terminate your health insurance online as well. You might need to attach some form of proof that you have finished your studies in Augsburg (such as flight tickets or the proof of the deregistration from the city, see point 4).

?

Necessary documents:

• copy of your flight tickets back home
• any other document our health insurance provider might request.

When?: - 2 weeks before you leave (Non-EU nationals)

????????????? - up to two weeks after your move-out (EU nationals)

At the end of your exchange studies you will be automatically deregistered from the university.

ATTENTION: As soon as you are deregistered, you will not be able to access the STUDIS platform anymore. That means you will not be able to check your exam results and download your transcript of records. Please do not de-register yourself as long as you need access to STUDIS.
