At ULB, success requires accommodation that guarantees students and researchers comfort and quiet, at an appropriate price.

All ULB residences are full for the academic year 2023-2024.

ULB offers a wide choice of accommodation in its own halls of residence and private halls of residence, either on one of its three campuses (Solbosch, La Plaine, Erasme) or off-campus (with over 2,400 rooms or flats). The Housing Office will help you to find a suitable accommodation and advise you on many aspects of student housing.
 

University Residences

Applications for university residence accommodation are open from 1 March to 28 April for the 2023-2024 academic year. If you do not have a place in a university residence for the academic year 2023-2024, we suggest that you look for accommodation in the private sector or in partner residences.

Some students may be given priority access through the Students Social Service after an examination of their financial situation. On the same basis, students may, where appropriate, receive rental assistance.

Students with Special Needs (SN) or Disabilities (DS) have priority on accommodation. If you have a disability and require special accommodation, please complete the form.

In the private sector

Private accommodation can sometimes involve scams. Beware of attractive properties with (too) attractive rents, usually below market prices. Do not send money when in doubt, and beware of emergency situations where prospective tenants are pressured to pay quickly.

Never provide your RIB, bank statement, etc.

Intergenerational Housing
Homeshare in Brussels during your Erasmus ? (without registration – « domiciliation a la commune en Belgique »)

For students who need a room to study for few months, we can offer a furnished room at householders (from 50 years old).
Economic lodgings (the charge to the student is approximately 280 to 350 Euros per month) for which they have a furnished bedroom and use of the house in exchange for regular presence in the evenings and overnight. There is no further commitment required from the student, apart from providing a kindly and reassuring presence in the home and a nice supplementary income for the older person.
Each senior will have the opportunity to enjoy an enriching experience, which allows relief from loneliness, sharing time together, with interesting conversations, a sense of security, being enabled to remain at home as long as possible and benefit from a small additional income. The student, for his/her part, can enjoy an original and inexpensive housing solution and share inexpecting moments !
