Rental period and Payment of accommodation
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.
See Academic calender for arrival days and rental periods.
Rent for one semester (one rental period) Brick Lane SEK 25,000, The Pine and Forskaren SEK 31,000. Co-housing in The Oak varies between SEK 21,000-25,000 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 fortefied 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.
Full-year students who study from January to January and stay over the summer must pay rent for the summer months. This means that your first invoice includes rent for 7 months. The one for the autumn semester 5 months.
Payment information
We kindly ask you not to use payment intermediaries such as Revolut, Western Union, Wise, and similar services, as they pose a significant risk of causing problems with the payment. In many cases, the sender’s name and invoice number is not visible, which means the payment cannot be matched to the invoice.
Your invoice number and payer's name must be included as reference.
Payment in EUR or USD is acceptable at your bank's current currency rate.
Note: you are responsible for any bank and transfer charges.
