LIVE IN AN APARTMENT

The preferred option for our students is to share an apartment.

And sharing a home is the best option to quickly integrate into the city… and into IMEP.

Because if this is the model that you would like to live this experience, we will inform you if our students release rooms in their apartments so that you can share a house with them.

LIVE IN AN APARTMENT

Sharing accommodation will make it easier for you to meet other people outside of classes who are in a similar situation to yours.

In addition, it is an option that allows you to save on expenses.

If this is your option, you can consult the following platforms:

If you are more into your own thing, you can also live alone.

Lately, apartment rentals in Spain have become quite expensive, but if you can afford it and need that independence, it is clear that living in an apartment by yourself is the best option.

In addition to Alicante capital, where we have our facilities, you can also search in San Vicente del Raspeig, which is 15 minutes by bus from the center of Alicante.

This town is very popular among our students because the University of Alicante is located there, and therefore there are many university students sharing an apartment there.

STAY IN A UNIVERSITY RESIDENCE

A university residence is the other option.

Normally these complexes have single or double rooms with everything you need to live and enjoy your university stay in Alicante.

You will not have to worry about hiring any service such as electricity or internet, and some include food and cleaning as complements.

If you want to live in Alicante, the residence options are multiple and varied.
