Erasmus accommodation near the University of Sassari

This institution, called in Italian “Università degli Studi di Sassari”, has its faculties spread over different buildings. All of these faculties are located in the centre and the surroundings, so they are close to each other and also close to the most frequented places by students. The farthest faculty is Veterinary Medicine, about a 30-minute walk from the city centre, in the Rizzeddu area. Due to the closeness of its faculties to the centre, it is not difficult to find accommodation near the University of Sassari.

University residence in Sassari

The University of Sassari has residences for students, but they assign few places to Erasmus students and international students each year (currently there are only 20). The available places are assigned upon first incoming requests, so if you want to live in a residence you have to request your place as soon as possible. Due to the lack of available residence options, it turns out to be difficult to find a place there. Therefore many young internationals prefer to look for rooms in shared flats on their own, rather than waiting on a list for the residences with no aim.
