There are lots of foreign students in Magdeburg and it is actually very easy to prepare oneself to stay during studies. The university webpage and facebook pages are helpful. I contacted the Studentenwerk and had a stress-free settling.

What do you especially like about Magdeburg? Why is Magdeburg a good place to study?

Moderate living costs and the availability of student housing are big advantages in Magdeburg. It is a small city, easy to move around and a safe place for international students. I have a calm city to live that actually helps a lot to concentrate on studies.
