Only those who are newly admitted to the University of Gothenburg or Chalmers for the autumn semester of 2025 and have not been registered in Gothenburg can apply for this accommodation. Please read carefully through the rules that apply for priority rooms on our website. **Affordable and simple close to nature and culture** Ostkupan is a house built in the 1960s. Since the condition of the housing can vary, we would like to emphasize that it is particularly important to view the accommodation you have been offered before answering yes and accepting. A yes answer is binding, and the usual termination of contract applies. Any pictures inside the accommodation are examples. In some cases, viewing cannot be carried out, in which case we refer to pictures on our website and to the floor plan. After signing the agreement, you retain your queue time.

In each corridor, there are 4 single rooms and a group kitchen. The two bathrooms that are also in the corridor are shared between two tenants. The tenants are jointly responsible for the daily cleaning of the common areas. SGS Studentbostäder is responsible for a weekly cleaning of floors and free countertops in the kitchen, as well as cleaning of laundry rooms and other common areas in the property. Annual rent adjustments take place after negotiations with the Tenants' Association. If you are already residing with SGS and are applying for another accommodation, please note that you have your notice period and thus risk incurring double rents. If you move in during April, May, June, or July, you will pay a lower rent during this period. From August 1, it will switch to a 10-month charge, i.e., the advertised rent. If you stay in the accommodation the following years, June and July will be rent-free months. You can live in the accommodation as long as you meet the study requirement; the usual notice period applies. More information can be found on our website. Curious about the area?
