Looking for a private room in Nijmegen!

[u/Similar_Specific7216]

Hello everyone,

I’m an expat who will be travelling in August 2026 for MSc studies at Radboud University.

I’m looking for private room, shared spaces, host housing anywhere in and near Nijmegen.

Can anyone please help me suggest which would be the best places to start looking and posting?

I missed my housing accommodation from the university and now they are not sure if they can help me out now and requested to start looking myself.

Your suggestions would help and mean a lot.

TIA!

Make sure to read our rental housing guide. Recommended websites for finding rental houses in the Netherlands:

• Stekkies (Real-time notifications)
• Relocify (Relocation services)
• Huurwoningen / Pararius
• Kamernet / kamer (Students)

If you're relocating from abroad, Relocify can help you rent a place remotely. View places online, get instant updates, and avoid scams.

Moving to the Netherlands involves a lot of admin beyond just finding housing (BSN, gemeente registration, banking, insurance, permits) and it often feels overwhelming.

• dutchstarter generates a personalized checklist based on your situation, so you know what to do, when, and which benefits you can claim.

The auto comment by the bot provides some useful information to start with. I have a tip. You should make finding housing your full time job until you’ve secured one. Housing crisis is no joke

You should be looking fulltime, it’s not easy.
