Housing for students, staff & guests

We do our utmost to assist you in finding suitable accommodation.

The University of Twente (UT) coordinates supply and demand through the regional housing portal Roomspot.

Although we do our utmost to inform you about possible accommodations, there is a housing shortage at the moment. As a result, students all over the Netherlands are having trouble finding housing. We advise you to arrange housing before the start of your studies. Please be aware that UT itself is not able to provide you with housing if you do decide to start your studies without having a place to live in Enschede or Hengelo. Make sure you find housing before the start of your studies. Please check these tips and tricks for finding accommodation.
