Answer 1

The Studentenwerk is the branch of the university in charge of student housing. Their website is in german, but then I take it you'll understand some German at least if you want to study there.

I did a quick scan of what they have to offer, and here are some ballpark figures for a room, usually with shared kitchen and shared facilities. Check out the addresses on googlemap to see their location in relation to campus.

Studentenwohnhäuser "Heilmeyersteige", Heilmeyersteige 105-115: 237 EUR, check out their website at http://www.wh-hms.uni-ulm.de/

Studentenwohnhaus Gutenbergstraße 6: 175 EUR

Haus Gerbergasse 1: 228 EUR

Internationale Haus, Frauensteige 2 (especially for foreign students): 226 EUR

Studentenwohnhaus Syrlinstraße 8: 226 EUR

Apparently the oldest and, as far as I can see, the cheapest, is Haus 1, Heidenheimer Straße 78: 160 EUR

All the above are furnished.
