In spite of increasing costs, Masaryk University is not planning to increase the accommodation prices as such. The rent in 2025 will only reflect the inflation rate according to the data published by the Czech Statistical Office (CZSO). The CZSO is expected to announce the inflation rate in the second half of January. The new price list for accommodation in ACS dormitories, with the inflation clause applied, shall take effect on 1 February 2025.
