The home is today the only place in Trondheim where you can live and get all your meals served throughout the school year. The common rooms are cleaned by staff every Monday through Friday. Singsaker Studenterhjem depend on the students living there to help out on maintaining the house. All students are required to work a total amount of 48 hours for the house every semester. During the summer the student home closes and it is turned into a hotel. During that periode all students have to move out their belongings from the rooms.
