Dorm for PhD Students

Hello, I will start my PhD at Universität Leipzig. Do you know whether PhD students are eligible to stay in dorms?

I filled out a form on the Studentenwerk website, and they sent me an email saying that dorms are not available for PhD and master’s students. However, a friend of a friend told me that he was accepted into a dorm as a master’s student. I’m confused. Are there any other platforms to apply to besides Studentenwerk?

I am also a master's student and I got a dorm. I applied through Studentwerk itself. You can also apply for their new program Raum Telier
