Guidelines for subletting a kollegium room

Requirements for subletting

Potential sublet renters must live up to the same requirements as other kollegium residents. This means that the sublet renter must be actively studying, interested in the DIS Kollegium concept, and show engagement in participating in the community. You may not charge a higher rent than what you pay yourself.

A resident can apply for permission to sublet their room if they live up to the following requirements:

The resident has lived in a DIS Kollegium for 6 months prior to applying to sublet their room
The resident must sublet their room to the same person for the entire period
The resident may not expect to be granted permission to sublet for longer periods than 3-6 months
The resident must apply for permission at the latest 2 months prior
The resident must not expect to be granted permission to sublet their room more than once

If you meet the requirements for subletting, an application form will be available in your DIS portal.

It is the responsibility of the resident themselves to find someone to sublet their room. Please have all the information required about your subletter ready for the application:

The person you are applying to sublet to, must also meet these requirements:

- Be an active student in a Danish institution/school

DIS is not required to accept a subletting application.

Important information regarding subletting

Subletting responsibility

Subletting is a resident’s own responsibility and your contractual agreement with DIS remains intact the entire subletting period. This means that DIS does not make a new contract with your sublet renter, but that you remain personally responsible for paying rent to DIS (and your renter must pay rent to you).

As a resident, you are financially responsible for potential damages inflicted to your room/apartment or other DIS property that might happen during a sublet period.

The subletter is expected to have been informed about the DIS Kollegium concept by you, and live up to the same expectations and contribute to the kollegium community.
