Room availability

Possibility of choosing your accommodation
Fee-paying students and joint masters students can request location and type of accommodation in the application. Since we have a limited number of apartments, we cannot guarantee that you will receive the location and type of accommodation you have requested in your application. Your chances of getting one of your preferences are the same no matter when in May you apply since allocations will start from 1 June. In the application, Exchange students are also required to list their preferences but with limited options to chose from.
Replying to your offer
Once we have received all applicantions, we start booking and send accommodation offers. If you receive an offer you can choose to accept or reject, but no new offer will be made. You have a limited number of days to accept.
Bringing a spouse or family
The number of apartments suitable for families are limited. Therefore, we can only guarantee accommodation for the admitted student if he or she receives an housing offer. If you plan to bring your spouse and/or children, state this in your application, and we will try to find suitable accommodation in one of our locations.
If you are only coming with spouse, it is likely that we can assist housing but the offer you receive may not reflect your selected preference in location and type of housing.
Pets are not allowed in the apartments. In case you have medical needs that require an assistance dog you will need to contact KTH Housing via email at the time of your application.
