Monthly costs

Usage fees (rent)

Rent is collected in advance on the 5th of each month via SEPA direct debit.
Information here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_Euro_Payments_Area
The payment with SEPA direct debit is only possible with a euro account. 
The ‘SEPA direct debit mandate‘ form will be sent to the resident and must be completed immediately and returned to the manager.
Failure to pay the full amount of the rent on the due date will incur additional costs which will be charged.
The first debit will amount to the anticipated room allocation. Any differences will be taken into account the following month.

Each student who has been assigned a place in our halls of residence will be charged with rent for the full month, irrespective of whether the student has actually moved in or out. 
Foreign students who do not have a euro account, or whose home country does not have the euro as their national currency, must open a student account in Austria. This is also free of charge for EU foreigners and third-country nationals.

The rent will be deducted from this euro account via direct debit. Foreign students must pay the rent for the first month in advance and then, when in Vienna, they will have 1 month to set up a student account.

3-year costs

Maintenance contribution 

The maintenance contribution is used to cover damage that cannot be attributed to anyone.
All residents are required to pay the maintenance contribution, as mandated by management. The maintenance contribution currently amounts to €180. This contribution is calculated on the basis of 36 months and, should a resident move out before 36 months has elapsed, the maintenance contribution will be refunded proportionally, as long as there are no financial claims from management (open usage fees etc.).

After 36 months of residency has elapsed, the same original maintenance contribution will need to be paid again. If this is not paid in full then the maintenance contributions will be deducted proportionately (€ 5 per month) from the deposit.

Maintenance fee € 5,00 monthly for 3 years Due every 3 years € 180,00
The maintenance contribution is used to cover damage that cannot be attributed to anyone.

The rent will be debited from the account of the student via SEPA direct debit between the 1st and 5th of each month.

If the direct debit is rejected due to insufficient funds in the account of the resident, or the person who pays the usage fees, bank fees will be charged and an email will be sent. We also charge reminder fees.
