Accommodation

Q1: What are the accom­mo­da­tion options in Genoa?

R1: At UNIGE, the uni­ver­si­ty does not direct­ly man­age accom­mo­da­tion for incom­ing stu­dents, but has a con­tact point that can sup­port you in your search, this is the Stu­dent wel­come office. They can be con­tact­ed at sass@unige.it.

The Uni­ver­si­ty of Genoa offers a sup­port ser­vice for find­ing accom­mo­da­tion for for­eign stu­dents, PhD stu­dents or post­grad­u­ates who are study­ing at our Uni­ver­si­ty (but does not guar­an­tee or book accom­mo­da­tion of any kind).

The aver­age cost of sin­gle rooms varies between €300 and €350 per month, depend­ing on the area and the hous­ing com­fort offered (ren­o­vat­ed flat, wi-fi inter­net, lift, ter­race, etc.), while dou­ble rooms cost between €250 and €300 per per­son. Flats — again accord­ing to aver­age stan­dards — cost between € 500 and € 700.
Stu­dents must ask their land­lords to sign a rental agree­ment. A fac­sim­i­le is avail­able at the UNIGE Wel­come Office.
