For our clients who have their student visa already, or those who like to plan ahead – We have curated a list of our Top 3 Suggestions on how to secure and find accommodation during your studies.
Homestay
For any person travelling and living abroad, the option of Home Stay sparks a sense of familiarity. This makes sense considering that it is one of the top ways to immerse yourself in the day-to-day living of the people who live in the country or even specified area. Often times, families who provide homestay are not seeking financial gain. Hence, it’s often a lot more affordable and it allows you to get to know the destination through the lenses of locals. All our homestay packages include two meals a day and three meals on weekends. We say that this is an enriching and affordable option.
If you’d like to know more – feel free to contact us, we have a list of host families/homestay providers!
Flatmates.com
Flatmates.com is one of the leading sites to seeking out properties/rooms or even seeking our flat mates to share a property with.
The site has a seamless interface, a rating guide, a price filter – as well as numerous listings across Australia that will no doubt pique your interest. Further, a majority of the properties listed are student shared accommodation – so it’s a great opportunity to meet new like-minded people.
On-Campus Accommodation
Colleges and Universities often have on campus accommodation. This is a great option if you would like to be in close proximity of your place of study and immerse yourself in student life. Often times, people have found that living on campus can often ease the transition to university/college life.
