Information about housing for students at The Drawing Academy
The municipality of Viborg guarantees student housing. This means that as a new arrival you can be sure to get a place of residence in Viborg, while you attend the semester course at The Drawing Academy.
What are the options?
Some choose to live in a rented room while attending a semester course, others choose to share an apartment with student friends – but most of our students and course participants live in the dormitory Camp Logos in the campus area, which is built in the recent years between 2007-2010, and is located right next to the school.
If you want to live in a dormitory, The Animation Workshop offers to help you locate suitable accommodation, and we also establish contact to the rental company.
The Animation Workshop cooperates with the housing association Sct. Jørgen in Viborg about the assignment of dorm rooms and student housing at the following addresses:
The dorm rooms are varied; common for them all is that the rooms are fairly small (from 12-20 m2), there are a number of shared facilities, and those who live around you are generally students at The Animation Workshop.
What does it cost to live in Viborg?
A dorm room in Viborg typically costs between DKK 1.600 and 2.400 per month, depending on size, and depending on whether you are willing to share a kitchen and bathroom, or you want your own private facilities. In addition you need to add expenses for electricity, water, heating and Internet etc. All in all you should expect to spend about DKK 2.200 – 2.800 per month for housing (for the largest of the dorm rooms Danish students can usually apply for housing subsidy).
What do you need to do?
In connection with the individual drawing admissions test and interview we will present you with the different options for housing, we are able to assist you with, while you attend The Drawing Academy. You will be asked to inform us whether you are interested in our help to find accommodation, or if you want to find housing yourself.

Accommodation in Camp Logos or Dumpen
If you want to live in Camp Logos or in Dumpen during your semester course at The Drawing Academy, you need to be assigned by The Animation Workshop. Note that we assign accommodation only after you have been accepted to a semester course at The Drawing Academy.
Camp Logos
As Camp Logos is normally reserved for the long-term students, it is unfortunately not possible to choose freely between the rooms; as a rule, students at The Drawing Academy can only choose rooms of the type 3a/3b. Note that this type of room means you will have a roommate.
You can read more about the different types of rooms and their arrangement here.
Also, please note that all rooms in Camp Logos are furnished with a bed, bedside table, bedside lamp, room divider, desk and chair. The furniture is part of what is rented, and therefore it cannot be deselected. You can see the current prices for rent and other expenses for the individual rooms, and you can read more about the shared facilities and what kind of furniture that comes with the rooms, here.
Please note that you can only continue to stay in Camp Logos for as long as you are attending a course offered by The Animation Workshop or one of the other educational institutions in Viborg.
Dumpen
Another option is to rent a room in an old, but newly renovated townhouse located in the center of Viborg. The house is arranged as a dormitory for eleven people with individual rooms of about 10 m2. Each room contains a wardrobe; the rest you need to bring yourself. You will find the kitchen facilities in the common areas.
You will share the kitchen, the bathroom and the common areas with 3 to 4 people, who are also students at The Drawing Academy. In addition the place has a small atrium and a laundry room in the basement.
Please note that Dumpen is reserved for students at The Drawing Academy. Therefore you cannot stay at Dumpen, if you continue on a different education at The Animation Workshop or in Viborg.
Moreover, if you have any questions regarding housing, you are welcome to contact the housing coordinator, Bettina Jensen
