Accommodation

Students are responsible for making their own accommodation arrangements and there will be a variety of options available to you. These may include university residences (highly recommended!), sharing private accommodation with other students or a ‘homestay’ arrangement with a local family (a great option for language learners!). Each exchange university has a housing office which will assist you to obtain accommodation.

Most students choose to live in a university residence while on exchange, as this provides greater opportunity for meeting new friends and becoming involved in student life. Residence housing is normally in a shared dormitory room. However, placed in university residences cannot be guaranteed at some institutions, so you must be prepared to locate alternative housing if necessary.

Further information about accommodation options can be found on partner university websites and in the Exchange Library.
