What Are My Accommodation Options in Melbourne?
Are you planning on studying in Australia, more specifically in Melbourne? Need information on accommodation options for foreign students? You’re at the right place!
Thousands of students come to Melbourne to study English and many other programs each year. Australia offers many accommodation options to international students. Generally options in Melbourne can be put into 3 types:
1. Renting a house or an apartment
Some students find it better to rent a house and live together, therefore sharing the bills and costs of living like Internet, gas, electricity and furniture. If you need to rent something by yourself, you also have at your disposal student lodges as well as guesthouses. You also need to provide security deposit and a bond prior to actually moving in.

2. Staying with a family
Staying with an Australian family is the perfect immersive experience. This is a great option for anyone wanting to fully experience the Australian way of life and to learn English as well. Many students choose to stay for a couple of weeks with a home-stay family until they find an accommodation of their own.

Various hostels and backpackers can be a short-term solution when you’re staying in Australia. They are affordable but not so convenient for a long-term stay.
