Type of accomodation
The residence has 6 floors with a total of 360 rooms. CBS can offer 18 single rooms for exchange students.

Tietgen Kolliget is by far the most endearing and modern setting for any prospective exchange student. The facilities are amazing: computer labs, study rooms, restaurant quality kitchens and a residence bar recently fitted with a 300,000 kroner sound system, just to mention some. The rooms are very spacious (even the small ones), which come with heated bathroom tiles, lots of light and gorgeous views. The atmosphere is great, especially during the weekend when there is always an event or a dorm party. It is a little further out of the CBS area, but this is totally compensated for by the fact that you are literally two metro stops from all the Copenhagen nightlife.

Aside from this, Tietgen is perhaps the most visually alluring of all the residences offered by CBS, receiving awards for innovative design. You are guaranteed to make fast friends and have a great Copenhagen experience. It comes highly recommended by an exchange student who lived in both private residence in 1st semester as well as Tietgen in 2nd semester.
