Queue points 

Studentbostäder’s queue system is based on acquiring points. Each point is the equivalent of one day counting from the first day the applicant registers in the housing queue. The applicant must personally register in the queue on the website and update this registration every 6 months to continue acquiring points. It is also the applicants responsibility to maintain their own contact details.
The user account and queue points gained are personal and cannot be transferred to another person. If Studentbostäder personnel suspect that irregularities concerning the user account have taken place or occurred during the contract procedure, we reserve the right to cancel the rental agreement.

Available housing is published on the website and the person with the most points will be offered the accommodation.
If an applicant turns down five offered accommodations within a year, that person’s accumulated points will be cancelled and the person will start from zero. If a tenant has received two late-payment demands within 6 months, they will not be permitted to apply for alternative available housing for a period of 6 months.
Tenants who have lived less than 3 months in Studentbostäder housing accommodation will not be given priority if the tenant moves between corridor rooms.

Exemptions

All corridor rooms (room with shared kitchen) with a rental date of the period1 August – 30 September will only be available for rent by new students at LiU who are not living in Linköping municipality.

Graduate students and others employed at Linköping University are advised to apply for accommodation to properties located on Tröskaregatan 10 and 12 as all other Studentbostäder housing is intended for use by undergraduate students. An employment contract or similar is a requirement.
Applicants with children will be awarded 300 extra queue points upon presentation of a copy of an extract from the Swedish population register detailing family members. This is obtained from Skatteverket (the Swedish tax authorities) and is called a “familjebevis”. Alternatively we will accept a similar international document translated to either English or Swedish.

People with physical disabilities may, on production of a written medical certificate, be given priority to student accommodation. This will take place in consultation with Linköping University.
