The four Colleges manage the dormitories under local regulations that differ somewhat. You will share a double or triple occupancy room with local students who have expressed special interest in sharing a room with a foreign roommate. This will enhance cultural exchange and immersion into local student life. No single room is available for undergraduate international students. |
