Due to the housing crisis in the Netherlands, there is not enough student accommodation available and it is very difficult to find suitable housing.

Fontys University of Applied Sciences (Fontys) offers a service to provide students with assistance in securing suitable furnished accommodation (i.e. a student room / semi-studio / studio) for the first period of their studies at Fontys. Fontys can only guarantee housing for a limited number of students. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you keep on trying to find a room yourself. 

A Bachelor student applies for a rental period of one full study year. An Exchange student applies for a rental period of one or two  semesters. In the spring semester it is only possible to apply for one semester

The deadline is 8 December 2023. 

Only after the deadline has passed, will Fontys inform you whether a room will be offered to you.

Look at our website for more information about housing via Fontys.

Note: If you book for one semester you can not extend your rental period. 

* It is possible that you will be offered a different type of room / studio if your first choice is no longer available.

Your obligations

1. I request Fontys to arrange accommodation for the full period required.
2. I approve forwarding of my personal data to the landlord to prepare the rental agreement.
3. I accept and pay for the offered room for the whole period requested and I will sign a rental agreement upon arrival. A Bachelor student applies for a rental period until the end of the study year. An Exchange student applies for a rental period of one or two  semesters. In case of my premature departure from the offered room, payment for the remaining period still has to be paid. When the landlord charges Fontys for the remaining period of the lease following premature departure, Fontys can recover this amount from me. In case of premature departure I therefore owe the remaining payment term to Fontys and must fulfil my payment obligation.  
4. I accept that the landlord / housing agency will charge two month’s rent in advance, other rental payments will be charged monthly. Exchange students sometimes may be asked to pay the full semester in advanced.
5. I accept that a refundable deposit (one month of rent) + cleaning costs (max. € 100) will be asked before or upon arrival by the landlord / housing agency.
6. I accept that arriving later or leaving earlier than the mentioned period will not lead to a lower total amount of rent.
7. I confirm that I have read the extended terms and conditions in the General Information on Accommodation and on the Fontys website.
8. I accept it is prohibited to live in a single room with more than one person.
