Accommodation

A place to live

  • Students enrolled in a Bachelor, Master or doctoral degree at the University of Luxembourg following a full-time study programme. Part-time students or families with children are not eligible.
    • Note: Students who have changed their course of study and have reached the maximum duration of stay in their original programme will not be offered rental contracts.
  • Incoming students as part of an exchange programme (limited to the duration of their exchange period)​
    • European exchange programme such as Erasmus, European inter-university agreements;​
    • Exchange programmes outside Europe under the Global Exchange Programme e.g. CanSys or Fulbright;​
    • Students who organised their own exchange period as a  “freemover​”.
  • Students returning from a mobility period abroad.

No guaranteed accommodation

The number of requests for housing, especially at the beginning of the academic year (September) and at the beginning of the summer semester (February), is very high and exceeds our capacity. This is why the University of Luxembourg cannot guarantee accommodation for all our students.​ We strongly recommend that applicants look for other alternatives.

Room allocation

Rooms are allocated to eligible applicants based on availability, if possible in proximity to their study location. It is not possible to choose a specific residence or location. You will, however, be able to indicate which room type you would like to apply for.
