Four very useful tips for choosing a student residence in Montreal

June 18, 2020 By //  by Céline Tanguay

When you are about to start your university studies, it is a must that you take some time to think about a series of details that will affect your future life: you must decide what career you will study, at what university you will study, if you will study at a local university or do higher studies abroad; if you decide that you will not study in your locality, where will you live? Will you live alone? How will you find the right place for you? What characteristics should that residence have?, among many other details… It is stressful, isn’t it? But don’t worry, if you are planning to study in Montreal, in this article I will give you four useful tips for choosing a student residence in that city.

Accessibility

Montreal is one of the main cultural, commercial and industrial centres in North America, which guarantees that you will have all kinds of service establishments you need close by, such as banks, medical centres, public markets, tourist centres, restaurants offering affordable prices, etc. In addition, when thinking about finding a student residence in Montreal, you should consider the distance from the residence to the university where you will be enrolling. Living close to the university will save you time and money.

An environment that fits your lifestyle

Some halls of residence have stricter rules than others, for example, some are non-smoking, girls only, do not allow visitors or have set arrival times, so before deciding on a hall of residence or another, ask about the rules of the place: if the answers you get do not conflict with your lifestyle, interests or needs, it is an option you can take into consideration.

The services included

When looking for a student residence, don’t forget to ask if the monthly fee you will pay includes basic services such as water, electricity, gas, heating, internet and laundry use. If the fee does not include these services, keep in mind that you will have to allocate a part of your budget to cover these expenses.

There are residences that include all the basic services in the monthly fee, and there are some that even offer food. My advice is to choose the student residence that offers you the most comfort, as it is the place where you will spend at least one academic year.

Reasonable prices

It is important that before you start looking for the ideal student residence, you make a budget according to the amount of monthly money you have, that way you can find a site that meets the details you need without creating you a financial imbalance. If you are going to live away from your family, you must learn to organize your finances.
