"If only I could live in the castle..."
When I first applied for housing in Marburg back in September, I was told that the Schloss--Marburg's very own castle, which is home to a small group of students--was full and I wouldn't be able to room there.
Well, I received an email from Herr Riggs, the BCA coordinator, informing me that some spots had opened up in the Schloss, and that if I applied post haste, I might just get in!
The only catch was that the application was all auf Deutsch*. However, I persevered, and after a good 8 hours of writing an correcting my application Aufsatz** to the Collegium Philippinum (the student organization that runs the Schloss), I sent it in.
I'm not sure if I'll get in, but I have spies that tell me my chances are looking really good!
Hoffentlich***....!
