General information

Savolaisten Ylioppilaiden Säätiö (Foundation of Savonian University Students), established by former members of Savolainen osakunta, has student apartments. Most of the apartments are located in Antti Korpin tie, Koskela. The foundation also has some apartments in Rautalammintie, Vallila and Maapadontie, Patola. Those who move alone may apply for a room in a shared apartment or for a studio. Couples/friends may apply for two-room apartment. Most of the foundation’s tenants live in a shared apartment.

The foundation’s apartments are mainly for the University of Helsinki students. Students of other universities (or universities of applied sciences) are also able to apply. An applicant must be a member of the Savolainen osakunta either when applying or when receiving the apartment, at latest.
 

Applying

The official times to apply for apartments are in 15.6.–15.7. (Summer’s application period) and 1.–29.2. (Spring term's application period). Applying is possible outside the official application periods, too. Applications that are received during other times than application periods are put on the end of the queue. The queue and applications in it will be removed when the next official application period begins.

Unlike HOAS, Savo University Students’ Foundation is not bound to offer apartments for all applicants. We select the applicants that are considered to be most sufficient.
