Rules and procedures for the provision and obtainment of dormitory accommodation are stipulated for individual academic years. These rules must not be of a discriminatory nature, and must allow for, in particular:
- for currently accommodated CTU students and graduates, the establishment of simplified conditions for reacquiring dormitory accommodation, and provision of partner accommodation for these CTU students and graduates;
- for new and newly applying CTU students, the establishment of a procedure for obtaining accommodation so that, upon the fulfilment of previously stipulated conditions (in particular, the submission of an electronic accommodation application in ISKAM4) they are allocated an accommodation place in the dormitories;

The relevant documents stipulate the amount and methods of payment of the monetary deposit, as well as setting out the conditions for submitting accommodation applications and reservations, and the methods of payment of fees related to accommodation.

Based on the allocation of an accommodation place and its confirmation by the applicant, the accommodation applicant will conclude an Accommodation Agreement before checking into the dormitory accommodation. At the same as the Accommodation Agreement, the applicant will also arrange insurance for items stored in the accommodation place. Other rights and obligations of the Accommodated Person and the Accommodation Provider are enshrined in the General Terms of Accommodation and in the House Rules of individual dormitories. The General Terms of Accommodation form Appendix no. 3 of this Scenario. The House Rules are issued by the SFA CTU director, whereby these documents, together with the Accommodation Agreement, will always be properly published so that every CTU student and any other accommodation applicant will have the opportunity to familiarise themselves with them. The General Terms of Accommodation will be presented to the Accommodated Person for their perusal no later than the signing of the Accommodation Agreement. The General Terms of Accommodation primarily contain the rights and obligations of Accommodated Persons, e.g. the obligation to keep the dormitories clean and tidy and to refrain from undesirable behaviour, the right to separate accommodation for women and men etc.

Upon termination of the accommodation, the Accommodated Person will return the accommodation place in the condition in which they received it; other conditions, e.g. refund of the monetary deposit, compensation in the event of damage to equipment in the accommodation etc. are governed by the House Rules or the General Terms of Accommodation.
