No guaranteed housing

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 housing for all our students.​ We strongly recommend that applicants look for other alternatives.

We advise exploring options such as the following links (please note that the University has no partnerships or relationships with these providers and does not endorse their services)

Please note that students from non-EU countries must reside in Luxembourg.

Students with EU citizenship who are considering accommodation in the border areas of France and Belgium can also consult the following links:
