In Finland many people live in rental housing. Make sure to reserve enough time for finding a flat. Some city districts are extremely popular and vacant flats are rented very quickly. When you have found a suitable place, you should quickly decide whether to rent it or not.
As for the location, use Google Maps to learn what the distance is between the apartment and the campus.
Address of Pori campus: Satakunnankatu 23, 28100 Pori.
Address of Rauma campus: Satamakatu 26, 26100 Rauma.
Pori and Rauma own rental homes. They are often cheaper than other rental homes and they were built by state subsidy. You can apply for a municipal rental apartment if you have a registered right of residence (EU citizens) or a student’s residence permit (non-EU citizens). Municipal rental housing in Pori as well as in Rauma are applied for through an online service.
You can usually find a privately rented flat quicker than a municipal one, but the rent will generally be higher. SAMK collaborates with reliable local rental agencies, that offer a big variety of various housing options in Satakunta region. We strongly recommend that you look for accommodation through an agency rather than a private landlord.
