International researchers and PhD students can apply for student housing through the regional student centre CROUS (Centre régional des oeuvres universitaires et scolaires). A variety of residence types are offered: furnished rooms, studios, or apartments.

Rooms and studios are available for one person only and you can rent them for short or long stays. Apartments are available for one or several people and can be rented only for long stays.

To apply for CROUS housing, please log in at:

• Bed & CROUS (offering only rooms for one person) if you are looking for a short stay housing (from 1 to 30 nights);
• Trouvez un logement (all types of housing) if you are looking for a long stay accommodation (more than 30 nights).

For a long stay you need to subscribe for housing insurance and have a guarantor. This can be either a private person living in France who will act as guarantor or you can apply for the national Visale system which will stand as a guarantor for you – this service is free of charge and you can apply online.

You can also check out if you are eligible for other similar aids such as Loca-Pass or Mobili-Jeune.

Live alone or with your family close to the university, local shops, and facilities, all in an international atmosphere. The International Students Residence offers furnished rooms and apartments (studios and larger apartments) which are available throughout the year.

If you are coming for just a short period of time, whether that be a few days or a few weeks, you can rent a hotel room in Dijon, Auxerre, Le Creusot or Nevers.

You can rent your private accommodation:

• either by real estate agency - housing visits via a real estate agency are free of charge but if you rent the housing via agency, you will have to pay agency’s fees which are generally equivalent to one month's rent;
• either by notary – notaries also offer accommodation for rent;
• or directly by private person - you can directly contact the owners of housing you are interested in, there are plenty of real estate ads published by private persons and there will be no extra fees for renting their accommodation (contrary to agency fees).

The Region of Burgundy-Franche-Comté also provides a list of several housing possibilities on the website Logement Bourgogne (website in French) such as rooms in private homes or shared flats (you have your own room with sometimes a private bathroom but share the rest of the accommodation with the owners or other flatmates). 

You can also take a look at the Practical Guide for housing in Burgundy (document in French) in order to find the type of housing which suits you best, as well as other useful information. You will find special websites for rental adverts, a list of private and public residences, advice for renting in France and how to apply for state financial help for housing.
