Accepted to LiU this fall? Congratulations and welcome!

We are happy that you plan to start studying in Linköping and we want to congratulate you on a good choice. If you are looking for accomodation in the autumn, you will find all the information below that may be good for you to know.

First of all – register in our housing queue

You can register in our housing queue from the day you turn 17. If you are a foreign student, you can apply for housing immediately after you have received your admission letter. Register in the housing queue.

This is how you look for accomodation

As soon as you have registered, you start collecting queue points and can start looking for accomodation.
Read our guide on how to look for accomodation.

Priority for those admitted to autumn semester 2025

To make it easier for you to find accommodation as a newly admitted student, as a person registered outside the municipality of Linköping, you have priority in our accommodation queue. For applicants with priority, it is the person with the highest amount of queue points who receives an offer of accommodation.

If you have received an offer for a corridor room, it is important that you accept it as you are no longer entitled to receive further offers with priority if you decline.

To increase your chances of getting accommodation in the autumn, it is important that you are active in your application and make 5 expressions of interest at each publication.

The priority applies to:

• For corridor rooms with move-in dates 1 August – 1 October.

• For those who are not registered in Linköping and live outside Linköping municipality

• For those who have been accepted to Linköping University for the first time or have previously been accepted but have not taken any points

• For accomodation that are published with special information about priority.

Important dates regarding priority

• Between the period July 10 – October 1, we continuously publish available corridor rooms that are reserved for students with priority.

• The priority applies to newly admitted students during the period 1 August – 1 October

Here below are examples of how publication takes place during the summer:
