Housing | Application procedure

The application period for 2025 - 2026 has ended. For questions and more information you can mail to stuvo@thomasmore.be.

The web form for applying to the residence for 2026 - 2027 will be available from 27 April 2026 from 18:00 until Monday 4 May 2026 from 18:00.

Belgian and international students enrolled at Thomas More can apply, but rooms will be allocated according to the priorities and deadlines below. Non-Thomas More students can also apply for Antwerp, but rooms will be allocated according to the same priorities.

  1. Students with a physical disability.
  2. Students who want to take on a social engagement (such as supervisor, corridor manager or participation in a volunteer project in Antwerp) can apply for a room. A motivation must be submitted on the web form. This will be followed by an individual interview.
  3. If you received a study grant from the Flemish government in 2023-2024 and/or a social welfare benefit, you may be given priority when a student room is allocated.
    Please provide us with proof of this when submitting your application for a room.

    Are you experiencing financial difficulties? You can check whether financial support for study costs is possible through the student counsellors at Stuvo. All information will be treated confidentially.
     
  4. Incoming exchange students
    The demand for rooms in our residences always exceeds the available supply, making a selection process necessary. We do not operate on a ‘first come, first served’ basis, meaning the timing of your application does not influence your chances of securing a room. To provide as many students as possible with an opportunity to stay in our residences, the university selects applicants with the goal of creating a diverse and inclusive community.
     
  5. Degree students
    1st year degree students with priority for minors for a stay of 1 academical year.
