Are any places/rooms available? Can we get a place for instance by September?
If I am the 495th in the queue, does it mean that it will take me several years to get the place?
Why are the queues for single rooms so long?
Why cannot the application for a place be submitted again from the web site?
Why cannot several applications be in the queue?
Can an expired application be reinstated?
Is it possible to apply for a place in a residence hall even if I do not study at the University of Tartu?
When I have sent my application for a place, does it mean that a place has been reserved for me and that I can come to school to Tartu and to the residence hall in the autumn without having to worry about it?
About the housing contract
Why does the contract show a deposit of 800 kr if I have paid 1600 kr?
Why will I have to give an advance notice of 30 days if I want to terminate the contract?
Recommendations to a tenant
The two questions that new tenants almost invariably ask us before arrival are:
Is my room furnished? Do I have to bring my own cooking and eating utensils?
Rooms in our renovated hostels are equipped with all basic furniture items – each resident has his or her own bed, desk, chair and shelves. Kitchens are equipped with a cooker, refrigerator, running water and basic kitchen furniture. The rest – curtains, carpets, blankets, pillows, cleaning equipment, dishes, water boilers, toasters, etc. – is up to the resident. Before you buy anything major, however, it may be sensible first to meet with your roommates/flatmates and see what is there already, decide how you’re going to use it, and only then, if and as you agree, start purchasing new items.
