Tarkaréti Dormitory

The dormitory is one of the most important places for integrating into the university community and forming lifelong friendships. 

The youthful, relaxed atmosphere of the Tarkaréti Dormitory provides an ideal space for networking, starting your independent life, and gaining lifelong experiences. Beer pong tournaments, joint parties, cooking, social evenings and other events can result in strong friendships that last for many years.  

The 400-person dormitory is located in the green belt of Budapest’s 10th district, 15 minutes from the Kőbánya-Kispest and Örs Vezér tere metro stations. The building is undergoing continuous renovation and development, and in recent years, a significant portion of the dorm rooms have been renovated.  

Residents are accommodated in three-bed rooms on five floors. Every room has internet access, and each floor has separate bathrooms for women and men, as well as a kitchen equipped with two electric stoves and a microwave oven. We also provide laundry and drying facilities.  

The atmosphere in the dormitory will greatly help you in your university studies. Thanks to the common groups and societies, there is always someone to ask for help. The dormitory also has its own library, where board games can be borrowed. A computer room and study room are also available.  

For sports enthusiasts, there is a well-equipped gym.

Useful information

Reception service

Telephone number: +36 1 262 4511

The building has a 24-hour reception service.

Receptionists check the photo on the card to ensure that the card is being used by its rightful owner to gain access; they briefly identify the residents.

The access card may only be used by the authorised person; transferring the card to another person will result in disciplinary action.

Visitors, technical faults and washing machine usage can also be registered at the reception desk.

The first aid kit is located at the reception desk.

Cleaning equipment (broom, dustpan, mop, vacuum cleaner, iron) can be borrowed from the reception desk in exchange for an access card.

Entrance control system

The dormitory has a rotating card access system. All residents receive an access card when they move in.

Residents are required to use the card they receive upon moving in when entering and exiting the dormitory. It is FORBIDDEN to climb over or crawl under the access control system or to transfer the card to another person!

When entering, you must place your access card in front of the reader built into the turnstiles, at which point the porters will check the photo on the card to ensure that the card is being used by its rightful owner; in short, they will identify the residents. You can then ask the porters for your room keys.

If you lose your card, please write to tarkakolititkarsag@uni-corvinus.hu so that you can get a new card as soon as possible.

Rules of Receiving Visitors

Residents may receive visitors free of charge every day from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. (up to a maximum of 3 people; more than that requires written permission).

Residents may receive a maximum of 1 visitor every day from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. with the unanimous consent of their roommate(s).

The fee for receiving visitors is included in the HTJSZ.

The registration/invoicing is based on the register kept by the reception service (Visitor Register), which the host is required to fill out and sign at the time of registration.

The visitor registration book must be kept at the reception desk in such a way that the name of the resident receiving the visitor, their room number, Neptun code, and the date and exact time of the visit can be clearly identified, and the resident receiving the visitor must also sign it when receiving their visitor. The visitor’s name and photo ID number must also be included in the register.

Visitors may be issued with a temporary guest pass, which will allow them to stay in the dormitory.

The resident receiving the visitor is fully responsible for the visitor’s behaviour.

A resident may receive visitors for a fee up to 15 times per month, one person at a time, and a visitor may stay in the dormitory for a fee up to three times per week. In the event of a violation of this rule, the resident may not receive visitors for a fee in the month following the month in question.

 A resident who seriously violates the rules for receiving visitors may be restricted from receiving visitors for a specified period of time or may be prohibited from receiving visitors for a specified period of time, while a visitor who violates the rules for receiving visitors and the House Rules may be excluded from receiving visitors and, in more serious cases, may also be restricted from entering the dormitory.

If, during an inspection, dormitory staff find a person staying in the dormitory without a visitor’s permit, the resident receiving the visitor may be given penalty points. Persons staying in the dormitory without a permit may be expelled from the dormitory.

Minors may only be received by residents if the visitor is a close relative of the resident (e.g. sibling) and the parents or legal guardians have given their written consent to the visit. In the case of minors, the permission of the dormitory administrator and the written consent of the roommates are also required for the visit. Even with the necessary certificates and permits, minors may only be accommodated in rooms occupied by residents of the same sex.

Internet access

We have tried to design the dormitory’s Wi-Fi network so that it is available in every room – this is the case in most rooms.

The network is encrypted and equipped with numerous filters, therefore it is PROHIBITED to connect to the network without registering with the system administrator.

Anyone moving into the dormitory can request Wi-Fi access from the system administrator if their computer has a Wi-Fi card suitable for connection.

PROHIBITED:

Connecting to the computer network without authorisation and engaging in illegal activities on it

Attacking the network or network devices in any way

Sharing the network connection in any way (including via a router or computer)

Operating your own Wi-Fi network

Using file-sharing programmes (dc, torrent, etc.) on the network. This will result in a one-month suspension of the service and immediate notification of the BCE IT Service Centre staff by the dormitory management. The University may take further legal action against the user, the consequences of which will be borne by the user who violated the rules.

Uploading more than 5 GB or downloading more than 50 GB per week from the Internet (internal network traffic is not limited) In the event of a violation of the above, the service will be suspended for a specified period of time, which does not entitle the user to a refund of the service fee paid. The suspension cannot be postponed and will take effect immediately.

The basketball court is located on the asphalt area in front of the dormitory. The quality of the asphalt is not the best, but the backboards are in good condition, so playing basketball in the dormitory is a good way to relax, either with friends or alone. If you don’t have a ball, you can ask for one at the reception.

The football pitch is located on the grassy area behind the dormitory. It has not been used much lately, as the dormitory residents prefer to play small-sided games on the asphalt area next to the basketball court (the key to the ‘cage’ where the small goals are stored can be requested at the reception desk).
