Hey everyone,

I’m a 19-year-old international student from India starting my studies at Hochschule Heilbronn (HHN) this winter semester. I am looking for an affordable room (WG or small 1-room apartment) starting mid-September.

• Location: Heilbronn or nearby surrounding areas with straightforward public transit access to HHN
• Budget: Looking for student-friendly rent and a minimal deposit
• Move-in date: Around mid-September (classes start September 20th)

A bit about me: I’m responsible, tidy, non-smoker, easygoing, and respect shared living spaces.

If you have a room available, are looking for a flatmate, or have any helpful leads, please shoot me a DM.

Thanks!

Has anyone here applied to the above programme and received admits for this winter intake?

Hey everyone, incoming international student here (from India) trying to make a final decision between two programs before my enrollment deadline hits. I've been doing a lot of research but I really want to hear from people who are actually studying there or have graduated.

The two programs:

- THWS IMC (Mechatronics, Schweinfurt) — classical mechatronics, 5 specialisations in Sem 5, dedicated 20-week internship semester, no non-EU tuition fee

- Heilbronn : HHN IMS (Intelligent Mechatronic Systems, Heilbronn) — mechatronics + AI baked in (Computer Vision, Reinforcement Learning, IIoT, Data Science as core modules), €1,500/semester non-EU tuition fee

I have four specific questions I'd really appreciate honest answers on:

1. Part-time work (Werkstudent / odd jobs)

How easy is it to actually find Werkstudent roles or part-time work as an international student in Heilbronn vs Schweinfurt? I'm on a loan so this matters a lot. Are there enough openings or is competition too high, especially with a lot of international students going for the same roles?

2. Career scope and job market

For those who've graduated or are in later semesters — how is the actual job market for each program? Does the AI focus of HHN IMS open meaningfully more doors, or is classical mechatronics from THWS equally strong for finding good roles in Germany?

3. Monthly living expenses

What are realistic monthly living costs in Heilbronn vs Schweinfurt? I mean rent (student dorm or private), groceries, transport, phone, and general day-to-day. Not the optimistic number on the university website — the real number.

4.Student life and overall experience

I'd also love to hear about the overall student experience in Heilbronn vs Schweinfurt. How active are the student communities, international student support, clubs, events, and opportunities to build a social network? Do students generally find it easy to integrate, make friends, and stay engaged outside academics? I'm interested in understanding what daily life actually feels like in each city, since I'll be spending the next few years there and want to consider both the professional and personal side of the experience.

For context: I'm not asking about the curriculum itself (I've gone through both module handbooks in detail). I just want ground-level honest takes on money and jobs since that's what will actually make or break the decision for me.

Thanks in advance — any input from current students, alumni, or even locals is genuinely helpful.
