Accommodation
Accommodation
When you are admitted as a student at Blekinge Institute of Technology, you must make an online application or contact housing companies available in Karlskrona in order to find accommodation. We highly recommend that you start looking as soon as possible after receiving your admission letter to avoid having to stay a considerable time in a hostel before you can get a student room.
Where can I find student accommodation?
To make the process of finding accommodation as easy as possible, we have gathered a list with links to housing companies, private landlords, and other accommodation possibilities.
If you have questions concerning accommodation, please contact:
- BTH Student Union at bostad@bthstudent.se, or visit their website
- BTH’s Accommodation coordinator at accommodation@bth.se

Other important information
When you apply for an apartment, remember to check:
- How much to pay in rent

Property Insurance (home insurance)
BTH recommends all students to individually purchase property insurance (hemförsäkring) from a Swedish or international insurance company. Personal property refers to your personal belongings that are not covered by any insurance at BTH, e.g. clothing, jewellery, bicycles, computers, cameras, etc.
