At least 12,000 students will soon call the new Budapest Student City dormitories their home
The construction of the Student City will be the flagship project in dormitory development, highlighted Varga Bajusz Veronika, Secretary of State responsible for higher education, vocational and adult training, and youth affairs. She made these remarks during the opening speech at the National Association of Higher Education Dormitories (FEKOSZ) Dormitory Leaders’ Conference on Wednesday in Budapest.
12,000 new places for students in Budapest’s Student City
Dormitories are far more than just buildings and infrastructure created by humans. They are the very places where young people first experience the feeling of stepping into independent life responsibly, yet with support, explained the Secretary of State at a meeting held in Óbuda University’s Bánki Donát Dormitory.
Speaking about the Student City project, she emphasised that, following a government decision, the development will provide a minimum of 12,000 student places in the capital city, right next to the athletic stadium. This will mark Hungary’s largest-ever dormitory investment, the Hungarian News Agency wrote.
She added that the project will set a new standard not only in size but also in quality, offering world-class living environments, modern services, and sustainable, eco-friendly operation. The Student City is expected to welcome its first residents within three years at the latest.
