Cancel accommodation

The possibility of terminating your rental agreement with BSN depends on several conditions described below. If you are unsure what applies to your situation, you can contact BSN.

Cancellation before move in

The following only applies to the cancellation of rental contracts allocated during the main admission with a contract starting in August.

BSN offers new tenants who have signed during the main allocation the possibility to withdraw from the agreement for any reason, subject to a fee:

  • Until July 10th – NOK 1500,-
  • Until July 31st – 1 month’s rent

Does not apply to existing tenants who have extended their contract, internal switches, exchange students, or new tenants with a contract starting outside of the main admission (for example, July 1st, October 1st). If you wish to cancel your rental agreement with BSN before moving in, but are outside of the main allocation, you must submit an “application for termination of rental contract.” Cancellation will then be accepted once BSN has found a replacement for the tenancy. A fee of NOK 1,800 applies, in addition to any rent for the period the unit is not rented out.

Application for termination of rental contract

Tenants may apply to terminate their rental contract during the contract period. BSN will attempt to find a qualified replacement for the contract and release the tenant from their agreement. The new tenant’s contract must start no later than May 1st and be signed by March 15th. BSN gives priority to applicants with special reasons for wanting to terminate their contract. Applicants should therefore attach any relevant documentation, such as for illness, interrupted studies, or exchange programs.

Termination of family flat

Family apartments can be terminated with 3 months notice during the contract period. You can find a form for termination here: Termination form family apartment pdf. The signed form is sent to resepsjon@bsn.no or delivered to BSN’s mailbox.

NB. The contract cannot be terminated before it starts. When terminating a contract that has not started/renewed the contract, the notice period will apply to the first 3 months of the contract period. A renewed contract that starts on August 1st and is terminated on June 1st will run out Aug-Oct.
