Housing Options Abroad

Explore trusted housing solutions for your semester or year abroad.

Housing Anywhere

Finding housing abroad for a short period of time is one of the tasks that every exchange student faces. While some host universities will offer the option of dorms, many won't.

That's why BGU International is collaborating with HousingAnywh​ere, the international housing platform for mobile talents.

Through HousingAnywhere you can:

  1. ​​Safely book your accommodation abroad – all listings include clear descriptions of what is included in the price and what is not and offered by verified private landlords, outgoing students who rent out their room during their semester abroad, host families, and housing operators.
  2. Use a secure booking system - your payment is securely held with HousingAnywhere for protection. HousingAnywhere gives you 48 hours from your move-in date to check that everything is as it was advertised, before transferring the rent to the advertiser. If the room is not as advertised, you are 100% reimbursed.
  3. Get priority access – BGU students and staff are HousingAnywhere's VIP Users and receive a 30% discount on the booking/subscription fee! *
  4. Have priority support - through live-chat, telephone, and via mail at vip@housinganywhere.com

     *To receive a 30% discount on the booking fee, a Ben-Gurion University of the Negev VIP profile, and priority access to the listings in Europe, USA and Canada, sign up here: https://housinganywhere.com/Beersheba--State-of-Israel/Ben-Gurion-University-of-the-Negev/sign-up

Please note: first you will have to pay the entire price and then email support@housinganywhere.com to receive that amount back.

You can find information about finding your new place on the how it works page. Do you need more information or have a specific question? Send an email to vip@housinganywhere.com.
