All apartments of September have now been offered
Soihtu’s apartments have been popular with applicants again this year, and we received many applications from new students starting their studies in August and September. We offer apartments that are available later in autumn to those who have sent an apartment application. Apartments and rooms will be available all year round. Apartments are primarily rented to students, with members of the Student Union of the University of Jyväskylä (JYY) being given first consideration.
Please note that there is no separate housing queue, the student apartments are offered based on the applicant’s needs.
