Housing for international students

Stockholm University offers furnished rooms and apartments for rent to international students, but there is no housing guarantee for applicants.

Not all international students are eligible for housing. A government decision allows universities in Sweden to offer accommodations to certain categories of students only. There is no housing guarantee for those who apply. Due to a shortage of housing in Stockholm, we can only offer accommodations to a limited number of students.

 

Who is eligible to apply?

The government allows universities in Sweden to offer accommodations to

  • international exchange students studying for at least one semester
  • students who pay tuition fees and study for at least one semester
  • exchange doctoral students who study for at least one semester.

Currently, master students who receive a scholarship from the Stockholm University Scholarship Scheme and exchange students are priority groups. Due to the high demand for housing from these groups, we are usually not able to offer housing to other fee-paying students. We recommend that all students read our advice for finding housing on the private market.

Housing application – tuition fee-paying students

 

The Housing Office, Stockholm University provides housing to international students and researchers at Stockholm University. However, there is no housing guarantee and due to a shortage of housing in Stockholm, the majority of students need to find housing on the private rental market. Therefore, all students are strongly recommended to look for different alternatives for housing. Please, read our advice about housing search on following link:
