About us

The Housing Foundation Copenhagen-fond is an independent non-profit foundation. The Foundation’s purpose is to provide students from abroad with flexible and competitive housing opportunities for the time they study at The University of Copenhagen. All our income is used for paying the costs involved in providing our services.

We help international students and researchers at the University of Copenhagen find accommodation for up to one year. We offer a variety of housing options across all parts of Copenhagen: We reserve dormitory rooms as well as private and shared apartments around the city and rent them out via our booking system. Currently we rent out approximately 1250 rooms and are able to offer services to approximately 2500 persons a year.

Many of us have years of experience working with accommodation for international students and staff.
