Accommodation
The Swiss Textile College neither owns nor rents out any student rooms. In fact, none of the universities in Zurich administrate student accommodation. Housing for students is offered by different institutions which operate independently.
Since the demand on housing is high, it is important to start looking for accommodation in good time and to explore every possible avenue.
You can find some offers under:
www.students.ch/wohnen
www.maximilianeum.ch
www.juwo.ch
The STC can help you to find an accommodation. (Shared flat approx. CHF 600 - 800).
The STC does not offer boarding facilities. Accommodation and meals must be arranged on a private basis.
Apartment Fraud
Many enticing websites are currently on the internet offering apartments for rent. Please be warned that such websites are often managed by fraudsters who are simply advertising non-existent apartments.
In such cases, we have noticed that the owner usually cannot be reached because he/she is abroad. Appointments to view the apartment are handled by a logistics company, a “friend” or a “lawyer”. If you agree to rent the apartment, you are immediately requested to pay one month’s rent in advance.
• You should never transfer money or make any payments before you sign the rental contract.
• If you are suspicious about your future landlord/landlady, you could try to find out more about his/her identity.
• Keep a record of all correspondence and inform us immediately, if you think that one of our advertisements originates from a fraudster.
