International student

To apply for student accommodation please use the student room application form below.

You must be accepted to full time studies (total of 30 credits/semester) at the Mid Sweden University in Sundsvall.

Student room application form

We will offer you a shared living in Nacksta. If available we will offer you a furnished room on Nackstavägen 16 A or B. We can’t guarantee that we have furnished rooms available for everyone. If you wish to rent your own apartment you can write so on "Other information" on the application form - only those who will be studying at Mid Sweden University for more than one semester may rent their own apartment.

In the shared living you have your own room and share kitchen and bathrom/WC with one or two other students. The rent is approximately 2000-3000 SEK for a room in a shared apartment.

• We will register you application and send you a confirmation by email with more information regarding the room we have reserved for you.
• Confirm the reservation within five days.
• After you have confirmed the reservation we will send the tenancy agreement to your email for you to sign electronically.

There are furnished rooms on Nackstavägen 16 A and B. The furnished rooms have a bed, desk, chair, ceiling lamp and roller blinds.

All other student rooms and apartments are unfurnished.

Before you are going to move out from your apartment you need to cancel the tenacy agreement. The period of notice is three months.

Fill out the form below to cancel your tenancy agreement.

Apartment number

If you're moving to a room in a shared apartment you can also find your room number in the tenement number, for example:
XXXXXXX-1

You can find your tenement number in your tenancy agreement.

If you are going to do a national registration in Sweden or want to have mail sent to you, you use the other four digit apartment number. See the screenshot below on where you can find it in your tenancy agreement.

Which floor is my apartment on?

This can also be found in your tenancy agreement, in the field "Floor".

How do I pay the rent?

Each month you'll receive the rent invoice by email. The email is called "Hyresfaktura Mitthem".
It is very important that you pay the rent on time - if you don't pay the rent or if you are continuously late with your rent payments you may be evicted. Rent is paid in advance each month.

Unfortunately we're not able to send this invoice in English but you can read about the necessary details on the invoice below:

Details that are needed to pay the rent if you have a non-Swedish bank account:

• IBAN number – Written on the bottom half of the invoice.
• BIC/Swift code – Written on the bottom half of the invoice.
• OCR-number – A reference number that you need to include on your payment. This number is different on each month's invoice. It’s written on the top right corner of the invoice.
• Due date – "Förfallodatum", written on the top right corner of the invoice. This is the deadline for when the rent is due.
• Amount – You can find the total amount that you need to pay next to “Att betala” or below “Belopp” at the very bottom of the invoice.

When do I pay the rent?

Rent needs to be paid in advance each month. The due date is the last bank day of the month previous to the rent's period. For example, the rent for January of 2023 was due on 30th of December 2022.

Can I pay the rent with credit card or cash?

No, we do not have an option for this.

Can I pay several rents at the same time?

Yes, if you're staying in a student room you can pay several rents together as one payment.

If you're staying in your own apartment you will get an electricity fee each month. Since this fee is different depending on your electricity usage you can't pay it in advance.

You need to book a time for key collection to your new student accommodation.

Contact customer service to book a time, at +4660-13 95 00 or email info@mitthem.se.

If you're moving to Köpmangatan or Oscarsgatan you have received a link to a seperate booking page, on the first page of your tenancy agreement.

All our student rooms and apartments have fiber internet. 2 mbit/s is the speed that's included in the rent but it's possible to order a higher speed via Servanet's website. You can translate their site with Google translate on top of their page.

If you need to write a Swedish personal identity number to order a higher speed you can instead send an email to the internet provider and inform them that you're an international student. They should be able to help you if you provide them with just your date of birth (YYYY-MM-DD).

When you move in

The speed 2 mbit/s is already active when you move in. However, a router or ethernet cable is not provided by us or Servanet, only the internet outlet (LAN port) that's in the apartment/room.

For most of our addresses you will get both apartment keys and key tags.

The apartment key is for your apartment door and for your room, if you're renting a room in a shared apartment. On some of our addresses you also use your apartment key for your storage room.

The key tag is used to open the building's entrance door, to book a time for the laundry room and to open the laundry room during your booked time.

There are no washing machines in our student apartments - there are instead laundry rooms.

You book a laundry time in advance on the digital booking board outside the laundry rooms.

When you receive the tenancy agreement you'll receive a welcome letter along with it where you'll find more information about where the laundry rooms are located on your address.
