The university guideline strongly advises you not to come to Maastricht if you have not found housing in or around the city before the academic year begins.
Finding housing is the first step you need to take towards making Maastricht your new home. In this section, we’ll give you an overview of the main things you need to consider when looking for and choosing your accommodation in the city, including:
- The main types of accommodation in Maastricht
- Some important differences between the social (public) and private housing sectors in the Netherlands
- How much rent you can expect to pay for housing in Maastricht
- What your rental contract can and should legally include (and not include!)
- General information about living in nearby Belgium
Unfortunately, at mymaastricht we are not able to help you find housing and cannot provide individual assistance. However, we have listed a lot of resources on the next pages so check them out! Good luck house hunting!
