  • I wasn't able to find the room initially through the student housing. So, I went to the private housing market for the room. I found the room via Kamernet.com, which is very popular in the Netherlands for finding rooms. They charge you approximately 30 euros for a monthly subscription.
  • The initial rent was approximately 1000 euros. There are no on-campus rooms here.
  • It is very hard to find room if you don't get it via Student Housing. You go to the private market and keep messaging 100 of Landlords and you hear back from only a few of them. Plus, not everyone wants to give room to international students.
  • My recommendation would be to be ready mentally that it is not going to be easy and if you don't find the room via Student Housing, be active every day on private housing platforms to find the room. 20 to 25 minutes by the tram from my location.

  • I opted for a Student Accommodation, and is off-campus. In the Netherlands, there is no ON-Campus accommodation.
  • I opted for housing accommodations during my application process. So, when I received my acceptance, the university introduced me to a third-party housing provider, wherein I got my room. The process was simple, but the university asked for one-time overhead fees.
  • I pay around 500 EUR for a room and bathroom. I share the kitchen with around 5 co-tenants.
  • For me, the process was smooth in securing a house there.
  • Yes, please go for university-guided student accommodations, as they are very clean and comparatively cheap.
  • It is a 30-40 minute ride through public transport. There is no specific area for Indian students, as the housing is allocated randomly based on their selected preference.
