Please discuss with your program head which courses will transfer back into your RRU degree.

Accommodation information

On-campus and off-campus accommodation options are available. At both SUAS campuses, on-site student dorms are available, all of which include a bathroom and kitchen. Most of the incoming students decide to live on Campus Urstein simply because it is the closest to university.

If you wish to live off-campus, you can apply for accommodation in the city of Salzburg. Closest to Campus Urstein are the student residences in the south of Salzburg, for example, the Europa Kolleg, Franz von Sales Kolleg or Internationales Kolleg. 

If you are interested in renting a room on Campus Urstein or in the city of Salzburg, e.g., Haus Salzburg, please visit the OeAD housing website and send your application online as indicated
