Fees and costs

• For Erasmus and self-financing students: The dormitory fee is 750 euros per semester, plus a deposit of 150 euros.
• For Stipendium Hungaricum students: The University provides accommodation in the dormitory free of charge, but the students must pay a deposit of HUF 20,000. In addition, students choosing to live in the dormitory cannot recieve any additional financial housing support from the University.
• Payment method: Students must pay these fees through the Neptun system before moving into the dormitory. Payment of the fees is a condition for moving into the dormitory, in the case of unpaid fees, we cannot provide accommodation in the dormitory. Therefore, please ensure that all fees are paid prior to your arrival. More detailed information about the method of payment can be found on the university website: http://etk.uni-sopron.hu/hallgatoi-penzugyek. The deposit will be returned by bank transfer after the student has moved out, provided that the student's room has been found to be in order.

Moving in

Students accepted to the dormitory are requested to inform us about their expected arrival date in advance via the dormitory@uni-sopron.hu email address. Please bring your passports with you when moving in (for EU students, an identity card is also sufficient). The condition for moving in is the payment of all dormitory fees. If there is an unpaid dormitory fee, moving in is not possible. Another condition for moving in is signing the dormitory rental contract. For this reason, we ask students to report to the dormitory office on the day of their arrival or, if they arrive outside working hours, the day after their arrival.
