Housing
Introduction
Students, masters and doctoral students of the Polytechnic University of Bucharest have the right to request accommodation in the university dormitories.
Students studying on a budget receive a simple accommodation grant. This grant is not available to fee-paying students or repeat students. Students who are children of employees of the education system, and descendants of the heroes of the 1989 Revolution, as well as orphan students with studies financed from the budget, receive a double subsidy.
Accommodation commission
The ETTI accommodation commission consists of:
- The vice-dean responsible for accommodation at the faculty level, as chairman of the commission.
- A student member of the university senate.
- A student member of the student organization of the faculty, appointed by the president of the organization.
- A student member of the UPB student association.
- Any other students or teachers in the faculty so that they can carry out the accommodation activity in good conditions.
The accommodation commission is responsible for:
- distribution of students in rooms according to this methodology.
- decisions relating to the acceptance or rejection of priority accommodation applications on the basis of medical certificates or precarious financial situation, as well as, with the opinion of the BECF, other special situations.
ETTI dormitories
Our faculty has places in the following dormitories:
- Leu A - 380 rooms with three beds in the room, private bathroom.

Registration of requests
You can apply for a place in the dormitory by filling in a form that will be made available by the accommodation committee on the faculty website.
It is only possible to accommodate students from different faculties in the same room if the two students are second-degree relatives or married. Requests to this effect should be made by e-mail directly to the accommodation committees of the respective faculties.
Categories of students
Students who can benefit from accommodation are divided into the following categories:
- Foreign students, scholarship holders of the Romanian state (who do not repeat the year) - for this category, UPB has the obligation of accommodation, and they will benefit from free accommodation in dormitory P23 for the whole period of the calendar year (12 months). Proof of status is provided by a certificate to this effect from the office foreign students.
- Budget students, orphans are both parents - for this category, UPB has the obligation of accommodation, and they will benefit from a double subsidy during the academic year (without the summer vacation). Proof of status is made by the children according to the death certificates of the parents.
- Budget students, orphaned by a parent - this category benefits from a double grant during the academic year (excluding summer holidays). Proof of status is provided by a copy of the parent's death certificate.

Proof of the status is provided by a certificate to this effect, on which the phrase "for use in accommodation" or equivalent must appear, targeted by the county inspectorate in the case of pre-university educational institutions or by the Rectorin the case of universities.

- Low-income students (who are not repeating the year) - they are given priority but not free of charge; proof of status is provided by copies of salary slips, pension slips or ANAF statements to prove family income, and birth certificates for siblings/siblings of the student applying or death certificates for parents to show the number of family members. If the average income per family member is low enough for the social grant, it is also sufficient for priority accommodation, but depending on the situation, other requests may be accepted. Each request is evaluated separately.
- Budget students (not in the above categories) - they have neither priority nor gratuity, but can be allocated places in the order of priorities and the average scholarship.
- Fee students (including those who repeat the year) - they do not benefit from any kind of fee reduction, regardless of which other category they fall into, and must pay a fee that is higher than the fee shown for the hostel they are assigned to.
A student can be part of several categories, the benefit categories are cumulated, but not the same benefit several times. Example: A teacher's child who is also orphaned by a parent will not receive a triple grant. Instead, a teacher's child with a precarious financial situation will also receive double priority and a grant.
