You’ve gotten your student visa, booked your flight, and enrolled in classes abroad—but where will you live? For Nigerian students studying abroad, accommodation is often one of the most stressful parts of relocation. PraisenPam is here to break it down and help you plan ahead.
Why Housing Should Be Priority #1
Arriving in a foreign country without a clear housing plan can lead to:
-
Overpriced temporary stays
-
Unsafe living conditions
-
Poor access to your school campus
Whether you’re heading to Canada, the UK, or Germany, securing student housing before you land ensures peace of mind.
Accommodation Types Nigerian Students Should Consider
-
University Dorms: Often the safest and most convenient, but limited in availability.
-
Shared Apartments: More affordable and flexible; great for students seeking independence.
-
Homestays: Living with a host family offers cultural immersion and language practice.
-
Student Housing Platforms: Websites like Unilodgers, HousingAnywhere, or AmberStudent help secure vetted accommodations before you arrive.
Tips for Securing Housing Abroad
-
Start Early: Some student housing fills up 6 months in advance.
-
Avoid Scams: Never transfer money via Western Union without verifying landlords.
-
Work With Professionals: PraisenPam can assist with trusted housing options and secure bookings.
