We welcome all exchange students in Rotterdam, the city that never sleeps!
On this site, students can find information on suitable student accommodation in Rotterdam.
Upon admittance to one of RSM exchange programmes, students are strongly recommended to start searching immediately for accommodation, since finding accommodation in Rotterdam can be quite challenging.
There are different accommodation services to both long and short term students, please read the information very carefully.
Long term students:
Students who stay in Rotterdam for more than 4 months or more. These students are strongly recommended to make use of the so-called SSH accommodation, SSH is the largest provider of student accommodation.
SSH pre-reserved Accommodation: www.sshxl.nl/en
The minimum period of renting is 4 months and rental period is on a full month's basis, e.g. 1st January to 30th June. Only in the Autumn period the starting date can deviate, e.g. 26 August to 31 December.
We strongly advise students to read the terms and conditions very carefully before signing any rental agreement contract as the RSM is not to be hold responsible for any accommodation contract.

RSM Exchange Students 2018-2019
We strongly advise students to read the terms and conditions very carefully before signing any rental agreement contract as the RSM is not to be hold responsible for any accommodation contract.
Find your roommate!
Since temporary accommodation for short term students can be a real bottleneck, the International Office strongly recommends that students combine forces and look for accommodation together with 2 or 3 fellow students. From experience we know that 2 or 3 bedroom apartments are easier to find in the housing market than one bedroom apartments. To find roommates you can always make use of our Facebook page: RSM Exchange Students 2016-2017 or ask the International Office for the email addresses of particular students you would like to approach (please send your email to: intoffice@rsm.nl
