Each
institute has its own policy for housing and may offer a range of options for single and
married students. In case of universities that do offer accommodation, you will be sent a
description of the on- and off-campus options available as well as the actual housing
application form.
Since most campuses have limited on-campus housing, it is extremely
important to submit the application form early. University housing facilities
may range from a dormitory, which may be shared with other students to an apartment for a
family. Some undergraduate universities may require students to live in a dormitory on
campus.
Most graduate students
live off-campus either by themselves or in small groups.
Students applying can contact
various Indian Students
Associations in the universities they are applying. Most Indian students manage to find
other Indian students for shared apartments.

International Students
Rents vary greatly from state to state, depending on the
location. All details can be found out from the associations. |
