Student dorms are better for Indian students at TUM Germany. Dorms are more affordable, offer easy access to campus, and are better for socialising with peers. Private apartments do offer more freedom, but are also more expensive.

Yes, TUM Munich penalises students for late payment of tuition or semester fees, usually by automatic disenrollment (Exmatrikulation).
This means students end up losing their status, and won't be allowed to attend classes, exams, or obtain student discounts in Germany.
