When you are already a resident with us, you will be prioritized on the waiting list if you apply to change housing unit. This can be a good solution if you don't feel comfortable in the housing unit you currently live in. Apply to change residence via My page.
How long you can stay in your student housing depends on the rental period you have stipulated in your contract. You will find your contract on My Page and here you will also find the duration of your lease under §1 and the section "Rental period".
Our leases run until July 31. If you are a student at the University of Southeast Norway, the Police Academy in Stavern, The Technical School in Viken or the The Technical School in Vestfold and Telemark, you will in April receive an offer for a new lease for your student housing unit.
The offer is valid from 1 August and will be sent to you via e-mail with information about deadlines and what you must do to renew your contract. We ask you to read through the new contract, as changes may have been made (such as a price change).
Read more about the new contract.
You must not have unpaid rent at the time your application is processed.
You must not have breached the lease or terminated the contract before it expires.
Why was I not offered a new contract?
The maximum period of residence in SSN's student housing is five years.
According to the housing regulations, residents must not make noise after 23.00 Sunday-Thursday and after 24.00 Friday-Saturday.
If you are bothered by noisy neighbours, you may proceed as follows:
Talk to them and ask them to turn down the music and show consideration for others.
Talk to the welfare host at your building, he/she may be able to help. Contact information to your welfare host is available at My page on desktop or in the app under Student housing/My tenancy.
Send a complaint to SSN – remember to specify time, place and room number.
Call the police – phone: 02800.
After 11:00 pm on weekdays and 12:00 on days before public holidays, and until 08:00, there must be peace in the housing units, as well as on the property in general. This also includes the understanding that one must take into account one's co-tenants' need for peace of mind even during the day.
Did you know there is an easily accessible person on your campus, that you can contact if you for example need help with the social environment in your accommodation?
