Living here · ESU residences

Every student residence, and what a bed would cost you

ESU, the regional body for student services, has 30 residences for University of Padova students, 22 of them in Padova itself and the rest in Legnaro, Rovigo, Vicenza and Castelfranco, plus 2 guesthouses. The rent depends on your scholarship status and the room, so tell it who you are.

Your rent depends on who you are

You won the regional scholarship. It pays €1,600 a year of the bed automatically, and you pay this on top.

Not for students: ESU's three guesthouses

Short stays of a week to six months for visiting professors, researchers and PhD students, mostly from outside the EU. Useful if a relative on a university visit asks. Requests go through ESU's Student Desk.

How a bed is assigned

You do not rent an ESU room the way you rent a flat. There is one call a year, a ranking, and an offer you have a few days to accept.

  1. Apply in the summer

    One online application in ESU's Student Desk, with SPID or CIE, or a username if you are an international student.

    Closed: 25 August 2026 at 10:00 for first years, 19 August at 10:00 for later years
  2. Your income decides the ranking

    First years are ranked on income alone; later years on credits too. From abroad, that means the ISEE parificato.

    ISEE up to €26,306.25 · ISPE up to €43,125.94
  3. Watch the portal for an offer

    Rankings come out in rounds through September. You may rank the residences, but a bed goes where there is space.

    About 1,400 beds in this year's call
  4. Accept within days

    Pay the deposit through PagoPA before the deadline in the offer, or the bed goes to the next person. There is no second offer.

    €380, paid through PagoPA within a few days of the offer
Choosing a residence:You rank them, but ESU is not bound by your orderMonthly rent in an ESU residence:From about €105 to €420 a month, depending on the building and your statusWhat the regional scholarship pays toward a bed:€1,600 a yearBeds for students who do not qualify:Separate call: applications 26 August 10:00 to 28 August 12:00, offers from 2 September 2026

The rents are ESU's published table for this academic year. They include bills, internet and the concierge. Stays of up to three months at the not-eligible rate cost a little more; the table says how much.

Checked against ESU Padova, ESU Padova, ESU Padova, ESU Padova and ESU Padova on Mon, 19 October 2026.
