Accommodation & Expenses

Accommodation

Swiss universities usually do not have on-campus housing. Students organize themselves in flat-sharing communities ("WG", short for "Wohngemeinschaft"), with three or four flatmates renting a flat together and sharing the rent.

For new incoming foreign students with no acquaintances in Zurich, it can be difficult to find a flat to share. If you cannot arrange housing from your home country, you should arrive one or two weeks before the semester begins to try and find a room.

Accommodation offers can also be found on the various notice boards in the university buildings and institutes.
