As with most urban universities, the Copenhagen Business School does not have a campus as such, although one is in the making. Neither do Danish universities own student-housing facilities. The Danish students either live at home, in private flats, or in one of the housing facilities available for young people in the Greater Copenhagen area. Accommodation for our international students is therefore organized through public and private housing companies.

Options
The CBS International Office has access to fourteen different student residences at this point. They are located in different areas of Copenhagen (for a specific location look under "Maps & Directions"). Generally speaking, the rooms in the residence halls can be either single rooms or shared rooms. In the shared rooms, there are two beds in one room, which is why the rent per person is typically lower than for single rooms. For more information about a particular residence hall, click on the name of the residence in the link section over to the right.

All our residences are non-smoking.

Please be aware that unless otherwise noted under the specific residence hall, you will not be living with Danish students but instead with other international students.

Is A Residence Hall Right For Me?
When trying to decide if a residence hall is the housing solution for you, you should keep in mind that it is a great way to meet people, there is always somebody around, and if you make an effort this is a great opportunity to get to know people from all over the world.

However, it is also important to be aware that all the people and the many activities can sometimes be overwhelming. So, if you prefer to study in your room and it has to be absolutely quiet, then maybe a large residence hall is not the right place for you. There are smaller residences available. You will find these Student Residences described as "smaller" and are often one large apartment with several separate bedrooms and a shared kitchen and bathroom. Copenhagen is an old city with old buildings and houses; many of these have been renovated and turned into apartments. When trying to decide if a shared apartment is the housing solution for you, you should keep in mind that a shared apartment is a smaller environment than the large Student Residences, but it is a very good opportunity to meet new people in a cozy and more personal way. A shared apartment will often provide a feeling of a home and the “flat mates” will be like a family. However, sharing an apartment requires maturity and flexibility. You must be prepared to solve problems and take part in the everyday routines; just like in a family.

Note that these apartments are located in the midst of regular residential areas. Noisy behavior, including music that can be heard outside of your room, is not accepted. Complaints will result in expulsion from the residence with no refund of housing payment and no replacement housing provided.
