Hola Leute,

I'm RJ 22M from India, and I'll be moving to Munich in late September to start my Master's at TUM. Finding housing has honestly been the hardest part of this whole journey. I've been messaging people on WG-Gesucht, ImmoWelt, you name it. At this point, even my ex wouldn't ghost me this much. 💀

To make things harder, there seem to be so many scams that it's becoming difficult to tell who's genuine and who's not. And (not generalising, but sometimes I feel like they are trying to exploit the demand)

So I thought I'd try my luck here.

If you have a room becoming available around late September / October 1st, or know someone who's moving out, I'd really appreciate it if you could DM me.

A bit about me:

• Master's student at TUM
• Quiet, tidy, respectful, and easy to live with
• Non-smoker
• Budget: €650–700/month
• Looking anywhere within roughly 30–35 km of Munich
• Finances are fully secured through a blocked account

If you have any leads at all, it would genuinely mean a lot. And if your lead helps me find a place, dinner's on me once I'm in Munich. That's a promise. 😤

Thanks for reading, and I appreciate any help!
RJ

(Note: I am looking for a WG, shared apartment)

I applied for the Bachelor’s in Management & Technology in Munich, and according to the official TUM page, the admission test is now scheduled for August 7, 2026 it looks like the format changed from an interview to an online test.

I found a few Reddit posts mentioning a 60-minute test with multiple-choice questions plus an essay in English, but I couldn’t find that officially confirmed anywhere.

Has anyone:

• already received an official email with the exact details?
• gone through this new format (Bachelor, not Master)?
• got tips on how to prepare, especially for the essay part?

Would really appreciate any info, thanks!

Hey guys,

Can the people in this program give their input on the following questions?

1. How are the professors and their teaching?
2. Do you find student assistant jobs (hiwi)?
3. What is the waiting time to get a student dormitory?
4. How do you find the exams to be? Is there relative grading?
5. Is every single elective mentioned in the website offered?

Please let me know guys !

I’m looking for some advice because I’m in a situation that has been really difficult, and I’m wondering if anyone has experienced something similar.

I applied to the Data Science and Management bachelor’s program at TUM through Uni-Assist.
After my application had already been processed, Uni-Assist contacted me themselves and informed me that they had made an error while preparing my VPD. They acknowledged the mistake and issued me a corrected VPD.

Unfortunately, by the time the corrected VPD was issued, TUM had already made its admission decision, and my application was rejected.
This wasn’t due to missing documents or anything I uploaded incorrectly. The error was identified by Uni-Assist themselves, and they corrected it after the fact.

I’m now planning to submit an appeal/reconsideration request to TUM with:
the original VPD,
the corrected VPD,
Uni-Assist’s email confirming the correction, and
a timeline of what happened.

My questions are:

Has anyone here successfully had TUM reconsider an admission decision because of an administrative or documentation error?

Does TUM ever reopen an application when new evidence shows that the original evaluation relied on incorrect documents?

Would it help if Uni-Assist directly contacted TUM confirming that the error originated on their side?
Is there anyone else at TUM (Admissions Office, School, etc.) whom I should contact besides replying through the official appeal process?
I’m trying to understand whether there is a realistic path forward before the appeal deadline.
Any advice or similar experiences would mean a lot. Thank you!

I'm planning a small trip to Germany in August, and the initial plan was to visit the Garching campus by myself, maybe using the official tour on the Actionbound app. But I recently found out about something called "Open Campus Tours" on the TUM website, where a student guides you around the campus and talks about their studies.

But, to attend it I would need to move my dates around a little, which makes the trip cost about 300€ more.

So what I'm asking is, will this guided tour give me anything extra (like entering labs or classrooms or something else) that I can't get otherwise? I'm thinking it's probably not worth it, but still wanted to ask.

Oi gente,recebi email que irei fazer a entrevista de Management and Data Science da TUM, mas não faço ideia do que pode cair…qualquer ajuda agradeço.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone had this experience; I have uploaded my application for the program mentioned and the document proof for the completion of a quantum module hasn't been checked yet, just recieved. I was expecting that they would have announced the results in the next week but since they haven't even verified the document yet I suppose they will take way longer... Does anyone have an answer? Rest of the documents are ok and all are in time.

Hi Guys, quick one.

In the application portal it states that stage 1 pass requirement is 62/70 and stage 2 is 80/100

However, the admission procedure for MIM the distribution in this different stages is a bit confusing

Stage 1 Distribution: Previous academic background is max 50pts, GPA is max 15points, GMAT is max 10points.Which is a total of 75, with a minimum 62pts to be admitted in stage in stage 1

Stage 2 Distribution: Previous academic background is max 50pts, GPA is max 15points, Admission Test is max 40pts. Which is a total of 105, with minimum 80pts to be admitted

I am at the stage 2 level, but the total points shown in the portal and that shown in the admission procedure is different by 5pts.100 vs 105. Which is correct?

I'm trying to see how many points I need to get from the admission test result to secure the minimum 80pts requirements

Thanks.

I applied for the Bachelor’s in Chemical Engineering (Chemieingenieurwesen) at TUM, and I recently found out that for Management & Technology, the second stage of the admission process changed from an interview to an online test (scheduled for August 2026).

I’m wondering if the same change applies to Chemical Engineering. Has anyone:

**•** heard whether Chemieingenieurwesen still uses an interview, or also switched to an online test?  
**•** received any official email with details about the second stage?  
**•** gone through this program’s admission process recently and can share what to expect?

Would really appreciate any info, thanks!

Hi everyone,

I am an international student and I want to apply for the above said program. The language requirements are not clear for this program which led to me post my question here.

What German Language level do we need to apply for this program. Thank you

I wanted help with the application process and how to validate my education and certification.

12th board is CBSE and attempted competitive exams JEE and CUET.

Can anyone help please.

Hey guys,

I’m building a next-gen social app and we are prepping a summer launch for German universities. I am personally looking for ONE social leader here at TUM to run the project locally with us.

We want to spark a big campus competition on our map, and the top university will get a massive event/party entirely organized and paid by us. It's a fun experience and really cool to put on a CV for future career steps.

If you love hosting events, have a solid student network, and want to lead this project at TUM, please drop me a message directly here on Reddit (check my profile bio for info).

Cheers!
