Since it might be quite difficult to find suitable housing by yourself, Saxion gives first year students the opportunity to arrange accommodation via Saxion. We can offer accommodation in either Deventer or Enschede. On this page you can find more information about arranging your housing via Saxion.
Arranging your accommodation
In the cities Enschede and Deventer, we cooperate with national and local student housing organisations. They provide Saxion with furnished students rooms, so you can easily move in.
These rooms are located in student buildings, full of other international students. You will live with Saxion students who decided to take the leap and move abroad!

In case you are an exchange student (including non-EU/EEA students) you need to hand in a request to arrange housing through Saxion (limited availability). You need to inform your Saxion programme coordinator* before 1 November (spring semester) or 1 May (fall semester) about your request for housing. The standard period for exchange students is one semester (5.5/6 months) and the rental fee for a Saxion room for this period is € 2934.-. Additionally, a deposit of € 500,- is required. This deposit will be refunded if you leave the accommodation tidy, clean and without any damages.
Some students for location Enschede might receive an alternative offer via our partner De Veste. The housing offer, prices and periods might differ from the Saxion offer for a Saxion room.
The Saxion payment deadline for exchange students is set on 1 July 2023 (fall semester) or 1 December 2023 (spring semester). For details on our housing you may check the information in this web site. It is not possible to cut the arrangement short.
