The Katholieke Universiteit recommends that exchange students organize housing after their arrival in Belgium because of the difficulty in contacting landlords from abroad. If the student has informed the University's Housing Service of their arrival, it can reserve a guest room in residence, or a 'bed and breakfast' room with a family, or in a low-budget hotel where you can stay for as long as necessary to find permanent accommodation.
Students wishing to live on-campus can find accomodation for both unmarried and married students.
The service will help provide you with addresses as well as assistance in finding suitable accomodation. Exchange students may be eligible for Canada and Saskatchewan student loans. University of Saskatchewan International provides travel subsidies to students who participate on exchange and study abroad programs. Depending on your length of stay, medical coverage may vary. For this reason, it is strongly recommended to check that you are covered by a policy covering medical costs in Belgium prior to leaving Canada.
