Make housing realistic

A housing proof that does not match the chosen city or dates can weaken the overall file. Students should avoid vague arrangements and keep written confirmations when possible.

Housing can come from a residence, dormitory, rental, host declaration or temporary solution, depending on the rules and the student’s case.

  1. Check the city and distance from the university.
  2. Avoid relying only on a residence place that has not been assigned.
  3. Prepare budget for deposit and first rent.
  4. Keep contracts, confirmations or declarations organized.

Connect housing with the rest of the file

VisaHorizon reviews housing as part of the whole project: admission, resources, travel timing and arrival plan. The aim is to avoid contradictions between documents.

Common questions

Is a dormitory place automatic with scholarship applications?

No. Residence places depend on local availability and ranking systems.

Can temporary accommodation be enough?

It depends on the file and current instructions. The proof should be credible and consistent.
