3. The Independent Choice: Verified Student Residences
Best for: Mature students looking for independence and security. If you prefer a dormitory-style experience, we suggest booking through verified student housing providers like Educational Housing Services (EHS). These residences offer 24-hour security, student lounges, and laundry facilities, putting you in the heart of the city alongside other international learners. Please contact our staff if you need help finding a place to live. We will be glad to provide any assistance.
