Do not make any more changes to an old housing application
Earlier, we detailed the upcoming alterations to the tenant selection process set to take effect in week 43 and discussed their implications for housing applications.
Under the new system, applications will be evaluated in line with the ARA model, with an emphasis on different urgency categories. In essence, housing need, financial status, and income will hold equal significance as criteria for prioritizing applicants. When it comes to selecting tenants, top priority will be assigned to those with the most pressing housing requirements and those with the least financial resources.

NOTE! If there are any changes to an existing application, the applicant must submit a completely new application.
No attachments should be added to applications already submitted, otherwise we will not be able to place applicants in the correct priority category.

Tempaus – harnessing community for advocacy work
This autumn, Aalto University Student Union will organise Tempaus after a break of several years. Kaikkien käsien jälki Tempaus (“A Collective Handprint”) takes place on the hundredth anniversary of the engineer with a sturdy beard, a mythical figure that supervises the actions of engineering students. In his article, Juuso Määttä delves into the history of Tempaus.![Joona Lipponen melko totisena](/sites/g/files/flghsv231/files/styles/2_3_288w_125h_d/public/2024-06/Hallitus_24-28.jpg?h=02cb7f90&itok=eb7J7kCV)
Government cuts put a stop to the construction of student housing
We are shocked by the recent cuts of the Finnish Government which put student housing and its construction at stake. In its session on spending limits, the Government made significant cuts to the special group investment grants for student housing construction, which makes the commencement of already planned housing projects in the capital region uncertain and complicates the housing situation for students as well as the housing activities of the Aalto University Student Union (AYY).![helsinki kiinteistö](/sites/g/files/flghsv231/files/styles/2_3_288w_125h_d/public/2024-06/Untitled%20design%20%282%29.png?h=10d202d3&itok=nqzzHvDB)

There will be changes to the deposit policy. In the future, deposits will not be collected from all tenants, but only in certain situations.![Mante smiling with an EU flag](/sites/g/files/flghsv231/files/styles/2_3_288w_125h_d/public/2024-06/Mante_eu_blogi_nettiin-min.jpg?h=02cb7f90&itok=pWzaolh-)
