In the programme for the creation of 3,000 new student flats before 2008, the Chancellerie des Universités helped create the Rollin Residence by granting it a subsidy of 182,938 euros.

The average monthly rent (all service charges included) of a one-roomed flat is 267 € (before deduction of the APL housing benefit).
