Where to live during studies?

In order to apply for a place in popular university dormitories, you have to fulfil a few conditions. The main criteria for granting a room are the per capita income and distance between your home and the school. A students’ house is undoubtedly the cheapest form of accommodation. Prices for a single room is about 380-640 PLN, double room 330 - 440 PLN and a triple room 280 - 340 PLN. The cost of rental is usually influenced by the standard of the room you are to live in. Other advantages of living in a university dormitory are: good location (near the school, means of urban transport and student clubs), integration events, new contacts, a possibility to exchange information  on the fields of study, exams, teachers, subjects or easiness in obtaining necessary notes. It should also be emphasised that the standard of the rooms rented in university dorm have improved in recent years. More and more higher schools decides to perform thorough renovation of their univeristy dorm, modernising the room equipment and substantially improving the conditions in which students are to live (building a gym and learning rooms, renovation of bathrooms and kitchens, better Internet connection, etc.).

University dormitories does not only mean fun and integration. The thing that may be an unquestionable advantage of living in a university dormitory for some people, for others may turn out difficult to accept and mean a great discomfort. Lack of privacy, limited possibility to choose a roommate, dirty toilets, shared fridges, control of visitors, limited visiting time, queues to a washing machine or kitchen, continuous parties next door, unexpected visits of roommate’s guests, noise — these are only some of elements inextricably connected with living in a university dormitory. You have to take them into consideration before you decide to apply.

You can find a list of university dormitories at subsites of each University, in the Universities section.

If you decide that living in a students’ hostel is not for you, think about renting a flat or a room in a flat. You can do it with your friends or decide to rent it on your own. Which option is better? It depends on preferences, and perhaps mainly on one’s financial situation. You must, however, remember that you cannot wait too long with making a decision. At the turn of August and September, when students intensively look for flats for the following academic year, the offers disappear very fast.

How much does renting a room and a flat in Lodz cost?

In Lodz, the highest prices are in the centre – Śródmieście (825 PLN). You pay the least for a room in Polesie (660 PLN) and Bałuty (650 PLN).  Average cost of renting a room is 732 PLN per month.

The highest prices of a one room flat are in Śródmieście (1325 PLN). You pay the least for a one room flat in Górna (1100 PLN) and Bałuty (1150 PLN). Avarage cost of renting a one room flat is 955 PLN per month. The prices of the bigger flats are shown below.

Students and graduates of higher education schools in Lodz who receive a recommendation from the vice-Chancellor of their school and are employed in Lodz, may apply for renting a flat in one of buildings renovated as part of the programme "Mia100 kamienic". This project covers over 170 buildings. Importantly, the buildings are renovated from cellars up to the roof, staircases and yards are refurbished, windows and installations are replaced. All tenement houses are being connected to the urban heating network.

In order to use the program, an able student of graduate must fulfil two conditions: he or she must have an employment certificate and obtain a recommendation from a vice-chancellor from the school he or she studies at. A rental agreement with persons who receive a flat is concluded for the term of employment relationship. After five years, everyone who receives a positive opinion of the City Council Public Utilities and Housing Committee (Komisja Gospodarki Mieszkaniowej i Komunalnej Rady Miejskiej), will be able to purchase the flat.
