Student residences

As with most urban universities, Copenhagen Business School does not have a campus as such, although one is in the making. Moreover Danish universities do not own student-housing facilities. Danish students tend either to 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.

The CBS Housing Department has access to eleven different student residences. 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 can be 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 the 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" with a shared kitchen and bathroom.
Note: Many student residences 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 can result in expulsion from the residence with no refund of housing payment and no replacement housing provided.  The home university concerned will be informed of any expulsion.
