Our housing offer is exclusively aimed at students who are enrolled for a programme at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts. In exceptional cases and subject to availability, students of other institutions are accepted for tenancy.
You can find the rates below the description of the houses in question. When booking, a room detailed description of the rooms, including size and costs will be displayed.
The rent is due before the start of the rental period. All students pay one semester's rent incl. deposit in advance. The amount is usually due after confirmation of the room reservation.
On request instalment payments are possible as follows:
Minimum duration: 6 months (1 semester)
Spring semester (1. February - 1. July)
Fall semester (1. August - 31. January)
We are aware that certain programmes start sooner or later within this period, i.e. that some students will only arrive after 1 August or 1 February. However, the period of tenancy is determined by logistics and organisational factors and cannot be altered.
Basically all rooms are furnished (bed, closet, desk, chair) except for a few rooms in the Seeburgstrasse property specifically for long-term students.
Yes, depending on the property, there are fees for cleaning or administration, which are charged with the deposit. For details, see below the description of the accommodation in question. Some residential communities organize a common cash register to buy various consumables. Amounts between CHF 5-20 per month are collected for this purpose, but they are not obligatory.
Yes. All rooms and communal spaces have internet.
Any damage to the flat and any repairs completed must be reported in writing to the property management or to a member of the building’s facility management.
There are no parking spaces for rent at our premises.
Pets are not allowed in any of our properties.
Students are responsible for renewing their room in good time if necessary. Those who miss this must expect that their room will no longer be available. Deadline for renewals from spring semester to fall semester: April 25. Deadline for renewals from the fall semester to the spring semester: October 25.
Withdrawal before the tenant moves in results in a fee of CHF 200 to compensate for any expenses. Any banking fees are to be covered by the tenant.
The building management suggests a date for the handover, which must be confirmed by the tenant. Before the keys are returned, the property or facility management will inspect the room together with the tenant. Damage, insufficient cleaning, missing keys and furniture will be recorded in the inspection report and deduced from the tenant’s deposit.
In order to make the room available for another suitable student as quickly as possible, we kindly ask you to move out within the space of four months after your removal from the register of students.
