Accommodation

Dalarna University works closely with two local housing companies: KopparStaden in Falun and Stora Tunabyggen in Borlänge. Most of the apartments that these companies rent out are located within a 30-minute walking distance from the respective campus.

You are able to book student accommodation once you have received a letter of acceptance (exchange students) or an admission letter (freemover student) from Dalarna University.

Please note that accommodation is not automatically guaranteed.  

How To Book Accommodation

Follow the guidelines provided by the two companies in order to secure accommodation or to be put on a waiting list.

Our experience is that almost all students who follow the guidelines provided by the companies always secure accommodation within weeks. Make sure to book a place at a youth hostel if you have applied late. Information about other accommodation can be found at alternative housing and youth hostels.

Note that the booking process is not the same for Falun and Borlänge, so please follow the directions carefully.
