International postdoctoral researchers who have not previously lived in Denmark may apply for a single room at Teknologkollegiet or Vennelyst Kollegium (closed in 2026 due to renovation). These rooms come furnished and feature shared kitchen facilities. You may choose to have a private bathroom or not. The rooms are only available for temporary accommodation lasting between 2-12 months. They are designed to enable you to settle down and acclimate yourself with Aarhus while looking for a more permanent accommodation option. Note that these rooms are exclusively for applicants who have not previously lived in Denmark.

• It is always possible to shorten a lease at these dorms with due notice (one month to the 1st) but it is not possible to extend a lease. Consider this when you fill in your application form.
• Please be aware that we receive many housing applications and we do not always have vacant rooms. It means that you might receive a housing offer starting before or after the date you have applied for or no housing offer at all. In case that you need short term accommodation before or after your lease please find some options here. Due to limited ressources we are able to send one housing offer per applicant only. Before declining a housing offer you should therefore be prepared to start the house hunting process yourself. Please find some suggestions here.
