No, the University of Helsinki does not own or operate its own student housing. Instead, it collaborates with external providers such as HOAS (Foundation for Student Housing in the Helsinki Region) and Unihome to support students in finding accommodation, especially international degree students during their first year.
HOAS offers a range of housing options, including: Shared apartments (private room, shared kitchen and bathroom) Studio apartments (private kitchen and bathroom) Two-room apartments (ideal for couples or friends) All HOAS apartments are reasonably priced, located throughout the Helsinki region, and tailored to students’ needs.
It’s strongly recommended to apply for housing as soon as you receive your admission offer. The demand for student apartments in Helsinki is high, especially in the late summer and early autumn, so starting early increases your chances of securing a suitable place.
