Upgrade Estate's residences are dedicated to creating a real community and enabling students to have an unforgettable student time at Upkot.

In addition, sustainability is fully central and this both socially and environmentally.

The vibrant community is fueled by the Upkot coach who will organize events for students to connect with eachother. Upkot's shared facilities and spaces provide the necessary extra comfort for residents.

Residence Loop 5 is still under construction. Until further notice, visits are not yet possible.

However, as a prospective resident, you can certainly get an idea of the residence through the landlord's promotional video.
