If you arrive outside our opening hours, you can ask someone else to collect your key for you. If you do not know anyone you can search for someone to help you via the Facebook groups (links will provided later).
When leaving your room and residence, please remember to bring your key. Do not leave your key in your room as the door might automatically lock behind you.
If you lose your key during work hours, please contact AU Housing (housing@au.dk). If you lose your key outside work hours, we advise you to seek advice from your caretaker, landlord or fellow dorm- or housemates. Sometimes, relevant information is provided close to the entrances.
Be aware that it might be cheaper for you to stay in a hostel or similar for one night rather than contacting a locksmith as it can be very expensive.
Please also note, that if you lose your key and cannot return it when moving out, you will be charged up to 6000 DKK to cover the costs of changing the lock.
You must move out and return the key before 9 am on the last moving-out date. This date is either Sunday 28 July or Sunday 11 August. However, we might offer some term 1 student housing at Teknologkollegiet, where you must move out before 26 July. The last moving-out date will be specified in your housing offer and short-term contract (upon arrival).
If you wish to return the keys outside our opening hours, you can return them to our mailbox outside the International Centre/Teknolog Kollegiet. You will receive further moving-out information during your stay.
NB: It is not possible to collect the key before your housing period starts, nor to move out after the last moving-out date. If you need additional housing please find relevant information under the tab "Housing at the private market in Aarhus".
By accepting the housing offer provided by AU Housing, I accept that:
When you have been accepted for an AU Summer University course you receive an acceptance letter via email (Answer to your application). In this email, you will find a link to a detailed guide to the housing application procedure. In this guide - as step 2 - you will find a link to the AU Housing application portal for Summer University participants.
The application portal is only available to applicants who have been accepted for an AU Summer University course. This is why you cannot find a link to the application portal on this website.

The prices above include a 200 DKK non-refundable booking fee, rent, consumption, internet access, a mattress protector and a bed sheet.
NB: Please notice that the prices only differentiate between rooms and studios. The price is therefore the same regardless of the location and condition of each room or studio.

As we must abide by the Danish rental legislation it is unfortunately not possible to rent through AU Housing on a daily or weekly basis. This means that you must pay for a full housing period. We are aware of the inconvenience but are unfortunately unable to change this.
If you are only staying in Aarhus for a couple of weeks, it might make sense for you to find housing on your own. You can find relevant information under the tab "Housing at the private market in Aarhus".
