Planning Ahead Is Your Greatest Asset
The student housing market in Strasbourg is highly competitive at the start of each academic year. Start your search early to find the housing option that best suits your needs.
- Starting in the spring: CROUS residences and many private student residences open their application periods. If you are interested in this type of housing, now is the time to prepare your application.
- June and July: The private rental market becomes very active. Landlords list properties for September, and the best opportunities go quickly. This is the ideal time to schedule viewings and sign a lease.
- August: The final stretch before the start of the academic year. Availability becomes more limited, but a few opportunities may still arise, particularly because of last-minute cancellations.
