Bien vivre son parcours universitaire, c’est aussi bien vivre au quotidien. Se loger, se déplacer et se restaurer, autant d’aspects pratiques qui dépassent les murs de l’université et qui influencent directement votre quotidien en jouant un rôle essentiel dans votre réussite et votre bien-être. L’Université de Montpellier vous accompagne dans vos démarches en vous proposant des ressources utiles et des conseils adaptés à votre situation. Se loger Options d’hébergement Résidences universitaires du Crous Le Crous est le référent principal en matière d’offres de logements étudiants. Il met à disposition de nombreuses résidences universitaires et autres logements adaptés aux différents budgets et besoins, à proximité des facultés, écoles et instituts.

Logements privés et colocations En dehors des résidences universitaires, les étudiantes et étudiants peuvent se tourner vers des locations privées, meublées ou vides, via un particulier ou des agences immobilières. La colocation est une solution également moins onéreuse, qui met en avant le partage des espaces communs et du quotidien. Plusieurs plateformes facilitent la recherche d’appartements ou de colocations : leboncoin, se loger, la carte des colocs, colocation 40+, Proby, etc. Logements sociaux A Montpellier, le bailleur social ACM Habitat propose des offres de locations étudiantes dans plusieurs quartiers de Montpellier, à proximité des facultés, écoles et instituts et de toutes commodités.
