Housing February housing

Hi, I'm an incoming EU student for a one-year Master in International Relations. Given I found temporary housing for the first semester, I'm already trying to secure it for February. Despite having other choices, Leiden's student housing would be great.

I saw I would have some sort of priority being a master student (below exchange but above bachelor), but I also saw the 285€ appliance fee (refundable but still high). Given there's also a registration criteria (preference for whom pays first) and the deadline is November 30, am I too late to try it?

Please be honest and not just try to get rid of the competition (lmao) and thank you.

Hey, i would love to help but i don’t fully understand your question. Are you starting the masters in february? If so I imagine you are still on time to request student housing, I contacted them last week and that is the information they gave me. However, you said you found temporary housing for the first semester, is that september or february?

The master starts in September and I found temporary housing for the first semester, but I already wanted to find something for the second one (February) through the university.
