Verification of right of tenancy
Buildings A-J and Q-T in Kortepohja Student Village are so called ARA student housing locations (ARA is the Housing Finance and Development Centre of Finland). Therefore the tenant selection criteria of ARA specifies the tenant selection to these student housing locations.
The right of tenancy in the above-mentioned residential buildings is regularly litigated by Soihtu. We collect the information of the membership of the Student Union of the University of Jyväskylä (JYY) from JYY’s register. The right of tenancy and verification of the right of tenancy has been defined in the terms of tenancy.
In fall 2024 the right of tenancy will be inspected in the buildings FHJRST in Kortepohja Student Village. If you live in any of these buildings and are a student but not a member of JYY, please submit a document of your right of tenancy by December 31, 2024.
