Application for student housing

Page reviewed:  19/01/2026

Here you can apply for student housing at SLU. The student accommodation waiting list resets each academic year, beginning on 1 May and running until 30 April the following year.

Who can apply for accommodation?

Students with an accommodation guarantee

The following students are welcome to apply and have guaranteed accommodation:

  • Fee‑paying Master’s students (non‑EU/EEA/Swiss citizens)

  • Fee‑paying Bachelor’s students (non‑EU/EEA/Swiss citizens)

All fee‑paying Master’s students have an accommodation guarantee, but must still submit an application using the form below. The deadline for exercising the accommodation guarantee is 1 May. Applications submitted after this date will be considered non‑guaranteed.

Applicants without a guarantee

The following applicants are welcome to apply, but accommodation cannot be guaranteed:

  • Exchange or internship students at a partner university with an exchange agreement with SLU

  • PhD students, PostDocs, Guest Lecturers, or Guest Researchers who are not employed by SLU

Applications will open on 1 May.

Important information

We are unable to offer housing for families. If you require accommodation larger than a student room, you will need to arrange your own housing while staying in Sweden.

How the application process works

  1. Complete the application form.

  2. Students who are offered housing will be contacted by email or telephone. Those who cannot be offered accommodation will not be contacted.

  3. A tenancy can be terminated with two months’ notice by either party.

  4. Inappropriate behaviour may lead to eviction.
