Housing Abroad
University housing varies widely across the different host universities, so we advise you to start researching the issue of finding accommodation at least a couple of months prior to the beginning of your program. Some suggestions of how you can find out if your host university offers accommodation are:
- Host university’s website;
- Student feedback reports, located in the Study Abroad Office;
- Previous and current exchange students who will be able to offer advice on how they found accommodation and they may also be able to provide contact details of their landlord.
Some students have found it easier to arrive at their host destination a couple of weeks before the term starts and to find accommodation then. Some students prefer to email the current exchange students for their advice on housing matters. Whichever way you decide to go about it, we advise you start the process as early as possible.
Please remember that it is your responsibility to find accommodation, not the responsibility of the host university or IIT.
Once your accommodation has been found, send the Study Abroad Office a quick email with your contact details.
