The State University of Moldova has closed four dormitories for being repaired. As a result, about 600 students will remain without places in dorms in the 2013-2014 academic year. The tax for living in the dorm is planned to be increased. Contacted by IPN, the head of the University’s Social Matters Department Victor Garlea said the students will be provided with more than 2,400 places in dormitories.

“The University’s administration aims to finish the repair works as soon as possible. The contract is valid for a year. We will recover the money for the lost places the next years,” stated Victor Garlea. The dorms No. 3 and 4 will be closed for renovation within a public-private partnership. There will be constructed attic-like rooms and bought new furniture and equipment. The dorms No. 8 and 12 are in need of extensive repair and will be closed.

“Minor repair works are carried out in the other dormitories. They will be completed in about three weeks,” said Victor Garlea. There are by six students in every dorm, who take part in repair works. They are paid depending on the work done.

The dorms will be opened on August 25. In order to get a place in the dorms, the students must file an application. If necessary, the application will be accompanied by a certificate showing the composition of the student’s family. Last year, the accommodation tax in the State University’s dorms was about 180 lei a month. It is not yet known if it will be higher this year.
