Rental period and payment
Rental period
Housing rent is for the whole semester (one rental period) or the whole academic year (two rental periods). The rental period for the autumn semester is from August to January, and the spring semester is from January to June. If you are staying for a whole academic year, the rental period is from August to June and is billed as two invoices.
Autumn semester:
19 August 2024 to 17 January 2025
Spring semester:
19 January 2025 to 9 June 2025
Whole academic year:
19 August 2024 to 9 June 2025
Rent for one semester (one rental period) varies between SEK 25,000–30,000 and depends on the type of housing. Co-housing varies between SEK 17,000-22,500 and depends on size. Please note that annual rent increases are expected. Full-year students with an existing contract are not affected by rent increases.
Payment
All students who have submitted their housing application on time will receive an invoice via email, including payment instructions. The invoice will include a refundable deposit of SEK 2,500. The deposit can be forfeited upon departure if cleaning is unsatisfactory or if items belonging to the accommodation are missing.
Before arrival, all students must have paid one rental period in full by 1 August (autumn semester) or 31 December (spring semester). After payment, you do not need to contact us for payment confirmation. However, we will contact you if we have not received your payment.
Full-year students must pay the whole rent for their second semester (spring semester) by 31 January.
