If you are a new exchange student, you can apply for AYY housing by making an application through the Domo system.

When creating your account, please choose EXCHANGE STUDENT as your student type. Otherwise your application can’t be processed and your chance of getting an apartment in time will be worse!

When creating your account, please add in some attachment about applying or being accepted into the Aalto University as exchange student. AYY will receive a list of all exchange students who have been accepted by Aalto and we’ll actually use that list to determine who has final right to apply for AYY apartments. The attachment is basically to just let you finish your registration to Domo, so the contents of the attachment are not that important.

Please include as many apartments in your application as possible! This will GREATLY increase your chances of receiving an apartment from AYY in time for your studies. Exchange students have priority for furnished single room apartments, so please at least include those in your application. Please note that most AYY studio apartments have a queue of nearly 1-2 years, so if you only apply to studio apartments, we can unfortunately practically guarantee you won’t be receiving an apartment from AYY in time for your exchange.

To maximize your chances of receiving an apartment, please apply before 15.7.! We will start to offer apartments to exchange students around this time and if you are not in the queue before that, you might miss your chance of receiving an apartment from AYY!
