If your course begins right after breakfast (klo 8.00-9.00) it is a good idea to come a day early and stay the night. Accommodation is in two person rooms in the student dormitory.
Accommodation instructions can be found on the bulletin board in the student dormitory’s A-wing. Your teacher will give you the door code!
The dormitory has showers for each hallway, sinks in each room and a clothes washing machine (B-wing downstairs). The student dormitory also has a social room with kitchen facilities that students are welcome to use.
- Students are responsible for doing their own dishes immediately after each meal and keeping this area tidy.
- Wireless internet (eduroam and uniguest) is available in the dormitories and main building of the Station.
- The lakeside sauna is available for students to use twice a week (usually Monday and Thursday).
Pets and visitors
- Pets are not allowed in the student dormitory.
- If you have visitors while you are at the Station have them contact the front office before they come so that we can arrange their accommodation and meals.
What to take along?
- Please be sure to take along your own bed sheets, duvet cover, pillow case and towel. Sleeping bags are not permitted!
- Remember to check your course guidelines for what other supplies you need specific to your course.
