Apartment Availability for Autumn

Every autumn PSOAS student apartments fill up quickly as new students arrive in Oulu. Our priority is to help new students coming from outside Oulu find their first student apartment.

September Apartments

September apartments are currently being offered. The queue for September apartments is long, and the first applications were received in March-April. Therefore, if you have not yet sent a housing application and need accommodation for the fall, we strongly encourage you to also look for housing through other channels. You can also submit a housing application and accept an apartment later in the fall or early winter when more apartments may be available.

Tips for Autumn Applicants

Update your application with one message – If you have already submitted a housing application, you can update your search criteria by sending an email to asuntotoimisto@psoas.fi. Expanding your search areas can increase your chances of receiving a housing offer.
Remember to renew your application when necessary – We will send you an email when your housing application is about to expire. You can renew your application by replying to the message sent to you. By renewing your application, you ensure that you maintain your place in the queue.
Remember to respond to every Fast Lane message – You may receive several Fast Lane messages simultaneously. The number of applicants and queue situation varies by area, so more is more – by expressing your interest in every Fast Lane apartment, your chances of receiving an offer increase.
