Accommodation cannot be arranged for the degree students by the Oulu University of
Applied Sciences. Accommodation is available either in the student dormitories or on the
private housing market. Admitted students should directly contact the student accommodation
services. Inexpensive self-catering student accommodation in single or twin rooms is usually
offered in the student dormitories. Most of the rooms have a communal kitchenette, a toilet and
a shower. Flats and family housing are also available in some dormitories.
The price of accommodation varies depending on the type of the accommodation. The
monthly rent for a room in a student hostel or dormitory is around 150–260 euros, for a
one-room flat 210–500 euros and for a family flat 360–740 euros.
