BI is proud to offer a housing guarantee for international students. In cooperation with our housing providers, international students can choose from several different housing locations.
Would you like to live at the forest's edge, with serene lakes as your neighbour? Or do you prefer to live in the city centre with cafés, shops and theatres at your doorstep?
You have several options thanks to BI's housing guarantee for international students. And, you may keep your housing choice for the entire period of your studies simply by renewing your housing contract each year.
While completing the application process, you will have the option to choose your own room based on your individual preferences and the availability with our housing partners. We cooperate with several housing providers that offer affordable single rooms in a variety of student housing units across Oslo and in Bergen.
International students at BI Campus Oslo are only guaranteed a room in a student residence if they apply through the Pre-Application for Housing before May 7 for students starting in August (Autumn semester) and October 1 for students starting in January (Spring semester). This does not apply to students at Campus Bergen. Further information about how to apply for housing in Bergen can be found under the “Bergen” section below.
Please note that the housing guarantee only applies to new students at BI arriving in Norway for the first time and who pay the 1250 NOK non-refundable Pre-Application for Housing.
