Accommodation

Host family
Living with a host family is a unique experience that will allow you to make the most of your stay. Being constantly immersed in the English language and culture will help you to accelerate your learning and to be more at ease with the language. Breakfast and dinner is included, making this a good option from a financial point of view.
Student residence (from 18 y.o.)
The residence located in Tipos Court offers accommodation all year round in modern and spacious single rooms with private bathrooms. It is about 15-20 minutes away from the school by bike and 5 from the city-centre. Meals are not included in this option, but the fully equiped shared kitchens allow you to cook whatever you like. The residence provides a comfortable and pleasant environment for meeting other international students and speaking English in a spontaneous manner.

Leisure

A varied program of leisure activities is offered each week. It’s a great chance for the students to get to know each other while discovering the different places of interest in the city and its surrounds. Sport also occupies an important place, for those who wish to take advantage of the large variety of possibilities available in Cambridge. Trips to London are easy to organise, either in groups or independently.
