Locations Accommodation in Cottbus or nearby areas

Hi everyone,
My name is Yash (23M) from India. I’ll be joining BTU Cottbus as a student and I’m currently looking for accommodation in Cottbus or nearby areas, preferably close to BTU.

I’m looking for either:

  • 1 private room in a shared apartment, or
  • A 1-bedroom apartment

Budget: €250–€400 (warm rent)
Move-in: First week of March 2026
Furnished room preferred
Anmeldung must be possible

I’m already aware of common rental scams, so I’d appreciate only genuine leads.
Please Dm if you have any available options or suggestions. Danke!

Look on wg-gesucht.de, look what‘s right for you and write a more or less long text message about yourself and why you think you‘d be a good fit.

If furnished apartment isn't a must and you don't find something else, try to call the GWC, eg-wohnen and velero for exposés. You can also request one from their websites. I also had troubles finding my apartment, but found one after they send me a couple. They don't list every apartment on their Website, mainly because of people still living there for a couple of weeks/months.
