Applicant service for exchange students
Use the online applicant service only to:
- Accept the exchange student housing offer
- Pay the furnished apartment deposit
Exchange students must accept a housing offer and pay the deposit in the applicant online service. Using the service requires registration. Register as soon as you have applied for an apartment – this makes accepting the housing offer much quicker and easier when we can send you an offer. Register as a user following the instructions below. When your tenancy agreement begins, you can log in to MyHoas with the same credentials you have created.
Register as a user
By registering in applicant service and MyHoas, you can log in with the combination of your email and password.
To register as a user, use the same email address you have previously given to Hoas. This is the same email address you filled in the apartment application form. When you register, we need to verify your identity since the service processes personal data. More information about the data we process can be found in our privacy policy.

If you want to also change your username, you need to register as a user with your new e-mail address. Remember to update your new e-mail address to your information beforehand.
