Housing in Helsingborg

In Helsingborg the sea is never far away. The city has a continental atmosphere and the campus is situated close to the city center. Studying a full-time programme at our campus in Helsingborg means that you will be spending a lot of time in Helsingborg. For that reason, we recommend that you apply or look for housing in Helsingborg. However, it is of course possible to commute between Lund, Malmö and Helsingborg. 

LU Accommodation

LU Accommodation offer housing at several different sites in the cities of Lund, Malmö and Helsingborg. In Helsingborg they offer housing on three different sites. The housing area is located a 10 minute bus ride from the train station in Helsingborg and a 5 minute walk from Campus Helsingborg. Please note: even if you have a housing guarantee, you need to submit an application for housing in order to receive an offer.
