Meet Sam

Your upkot coach

Sam loves music, film and football. And above all: bringing students together. What he’s most proud of? Upkot friendships that are still going strong years later. As a coach, he fights study stress and fixes all practical issues. His motto? “Get busy living or get busy dying.” And honestly, no one ever died from too many student activities.

Always something going on

Upkot community

Living together means creating everyday memories that last a lifetime. Spilling spaghetti and feeding the Upkot chickens. Silent disco in the kitchen. Pre-drinks and post-party hangovers. Laughing till you cry. Netflix & chill. The Big Upkot Party and a quick football match.
