Housing
AU Summer University Accommodation
AU Summer University students have a variety of options for accommodation in Aarhus. If you want to find the cheapest housing solution you should apply for unspecified student accommodation, see below. If you need more comfort and service you should book a room in one of the many hotels, hostels, B&B or campsites in and around Aarhus. We recommend that you make your reservation minimum 2-3 months before your AU Summer University programme starts.
Unspecified student accommodation
You can apply for a furnished, single room in student residences and shared facility houses situated at a distance of max. 5 km from campus. All rooms have access to kitchen and bathroom (some rooms have private bathrooms, but this can’t be guaranteed). The rooms are located in student residences where you will live with Danish students, shared facility houses where you will live with international students only, and shared flats/houses where you share the facilities with other summer university students. Unfortunately we are not able to meet special requests, and if you choose this accommodation option you must prepare yourself for unspecified accommodation – and most likely new acquaintances and interesting experiences.
Leases are available in the following periods only:
- 1 July – 31 July, 2013
- 1 July – 14 August, 2013
- 1 July – 30 August, 2013
- 15 July – 14 August, 2013
- 15 July – 30 August, 2013
- 1 August – 30 August, 2013
Leases are available on a monthly basic referring to the periods mentioned above. If the duration of your summer university programme is less than a month you can choose to spend a few days in Aarhus before or after your programme visiting some of the interesting attractions in and around Aarhus.
Duvets and pillows are not provided at the unspecified student accommodation. We recommend you to bring your sleeping bag with you. It will though be possible to buy duvet and pillow at AU Webshop. However you need to bring bed linen and towels yourself.
Internet is provided and included in the rent.
The price is 3200 DKK per month referring to the periods mentioned above (4500 DKK for 6 weeks 5800 DKK for two months.)
Key pick up will take place at the AU Summer University Help Desk at the International Centre from 12 noon on 1 July, 15 July and 1 August.
