ACCOMMODATION – University Halls of Residence

The accommodation in the University Halls of Residence is not managed at Faculty level, but at central level, by the central International Office (SRI) for the (whole) University of Porto.

The SRI is responsible for managing the vacancies that are available for the exchange, but they are very scarce considering the needs arising from the increase of incoming flows. Requests are processed on a "first-come, first-served" basis, after their acceptance by the respective Faculty.

In the Application Form (page 4) the student can indicate if he wants to apply for a place at the University Halls of Residence.

ACCOMMODATION – Private Rooms/Apartments

The International Office also seeks to provide students with information of accommodation at private houses, all over the city. To that purpose, the office manages an up-to-date database with contact details offering flats, houses and rooms for rent. Students may establish direct contact with several accommodation offers and therefore select the opportunities that suit them most.

FEUP Students’ Association – they have a list of private rooms/apartments and they help the students in the contacts with the landlords.
