How it works

Dear student, Welcome!

IULM actively supports students in their research for accommodation.

A wide range of accommodation are offered nearby the Campus (Via Carlo Bo 1) through different selected housing providers or private landlords. We offer different accommodation typologies with a minimum stay of 12 months. 

Surfing the website, you will find studio apartments or single/double rooms in apartments shared with other students with all the information you may need, such as price, location, facilities and pictures.

 

Procedure for booking an accommodation

1) Register an account


Once enrolled, you can create an account on the website www.milanhousing.it/iulm/ filling the registration form at the beginning. Even without subscription, you can surf the website and start looking for the right solution without sending any booking request.

IMPORTANT: the account must contain the personal information of the student and not others (parents or relatives). It is also forbidden to create two or more accounts for the same user. Other accounts will be deleted.

2) Select filters on the homepage and click on "Search"


You can address your research using the homepage filters distance, typology, gender, price and availability. If your start a research without using filters the website will show you all the rooms and apartments currently uploaded. If the filters won't show you any results it means that there is no room that matches your criteria.

3) Verify accommodation’s availability


On the page apartments/rooms, in each accommodation record you will find a green or an orange dot: 
Green – Available: you can book the apartment/room
Orange – pending approval: the apartment/room has been already optioned by another student and it won't be possible to book it until the dot will turn green (available)
