Practical Information
Accommodation Information
Linköping University does NOT guarantee accommodation for all their incoming exchange students. We do, however, have a limited number of rooms that we offer exchange students on a first come, first served basis. Students apply for these rooms by using the same application form as for your courses.
The rooms are located in student corridors, with shared kitchens/living room and within walking/biking distance from the University. They are furnished and have a monthly rent of approximately 4128-4955 SEK (~€365-440). A number of small studios are also available and have a monthly rent of approximately 5000 -6608 SEK (~€440-580).
If a student is not offered a room from the University, they will get instructions from the housing coordinator at Linköping University on how to search for accommodation on their own.
