  • If you enrol early by February, you can get help from the International Students office for accommodation. They have tie-ups. That is how I got my accommodation. Otherwise, the best source is STUDAPART. They charge heavy fees, but it is reliable and can act as a guarantor as well.
  • Bed, proper bathroom, microwave and stoves. Cabinet. Mattress as well. For my accommodation, even a balcony. Sometimes, depending on the building, there may be laundry facilities, a gym, a common area, and vending machines. My rent was 650 euros. I got a subsidy of 190.
  • This is a tourist destination in the summer, so accommodations are expensive and get booked very fast.
  • Get an admission early and use the help from the student office. It is a challenge otherwise.
  • My accommodation was 20 minutes away by tram. Most indian students stayed close to the campus, which was just 5 minutes away.

  • EDHEC has partnered agencies for accommodation. I applied through that. There are other online platforms and real state agents but since I was coming for the first time in France, I trusted EDHEC's partner agency.
  • My rent was 515 euros for a room of 10 square meters. Living in Croix or Roubaix(near to EDHEC campus), the rent can vary from 400-700 euros. I had my private room with a private bathroom but the kitchen was shared among 8 people.( you can have a studio also for a private kitchen too).
  • The challenge one could face is getting electricity connection start as you have to communicate in French with the operator. Some partners do it for you but it’s not always the case. My recommendation would be live in or near the campus as you have to go everyday.
  • Living in Lille city can be more attractive but daily travel would be tiring. I loved inside the campus so it was not the issue(tip: if you want to stay in campus residence, apply early).

  • In campus accommodation for the first year and the monthly rent was around 550€. EDHEC will help you if you choose to stay on campus but for the second year of Masters you are not allowed to stay there.
  • You can only stay off campus and I stayed in Roubaix, 20 mins walk to the campus. The rent was ~500€. I would recommend for students to stay in campus for 1st year and off campus in Roubaix/Croix or Lille in the 2nd year
  • Beware of the scams and make sure you ask what all in inclusive before finalizing the accommodation

  • The international Student office helped us find the accommodation as EDHEC has dedicated platform to help students find the accommodation very easily 
  • They also helped us to make sure that the house we are renting is genuine and not fake or if the area is good to live or not. So, basically there was not so much of a challenge to find the housing.
  • I lived on campus and it was a sharing accommodation in which the kitchen was shared between 8 people but you have your own room and private bathroom. You can also choose studio on campus. 
  • Most Indian usually prefer to stay on campus during first year and later on in M2 year they live outside in city. Also, the rooms on campus are only allotted to students coming for first time to EDHEC.

  • I opted for off campus accommodation 20 mins by walk from campus.
  • I found it through the edhec accommodation portal which is provided to every student.
  • monthly rent for 540 with 99 reimbursed in rent support.
  • I honestly did not face difficulties to find as this portal made it very easy.
  • First you fill out your request and the international student office connects you to the landlord.
  • I would say definitely speak to existing students as everyone faced different issues with landlords and security deposit issues.
  • The campus being not so large it is better to live in the city as it is very accessible. If you want to stay close of course look for nearby hostels and accommodation. Honestly all the information is provided by the admin like which areas to avoid and look into.
  • Most of the Indians I knew stayed near campus or on campus. Mine was just a 20 min walk from campus in the town names Croix which is a very quiet and calm area in lille.

  • For accommodation Edhec helps all the students send a pdf to students that have the details of all the accommodations with rent and photos and every detail. Edhec has its international Students Office (ISO) that is very helpful and helps in everything so finding an accommodation is very easy.
  • My monthly rent is 490 euros but in France you get a housing allowance from the government that is CAF and some part of the rent is sent back to you. A separate room with a shared kitchen and shared washroom and a washing machine.
  • For me it was very easy because of ISO. It was very simple process and I already had an accommodation booked before coming here.
  • I will recommend if someone wants ease and doesn't wants to walk too much then they should consider in campus residence, otherwise if they are okay with walking everyday to college then they can consider staying outside the campus as in that you can make international friends as well and you get much more liberty.
  • My accommodation is 1.5 KM from the campus and most of the Indian students either stay on the campus or they stay not more than 2KM radius from the college.
