Accommodation Support
General guidance comparing accommodation options and what to check before you commit.
Overview
What this service covers
Finding suitable accommodation is one of the more time-sensitive parts of preparing to study abroad. This service provides general guidance and, where available, referral assistance across common accommodation categories — Janan does not guarantee property availability, condition or landlord performance.
This may help students who have confirmed their destination and institution and now need to plan where they'll live.
