Madrid

You can find all the information on its website or, if you prefer, you can receive assistance in person by going to the Student Services Building.
The Community of Madrid government's University Information and Advice Centre also helps university students who wish to study at Madrid's universities in their search for accommodation. For this purpose it has the “Virtual Housing” Service, a search engine where you can find all kinds of accommodation (rooms in shared flats, housing with a family, flat rental, etc) for the whole region.
Private flats shared with other students
This is the most popular and affordable type of accommodation. It consists of sharing a rented flat with other students. In addition to the rental price, you need to add on costs for water, electricity, gas, telephone, etc. In almost all cases you have to pay a deposit when you sign the rental contract, this being equivalent to the cost for one month in advance, which will not be refunded if you leave the flat before the contract ends or the flat suffers any kind of damage.
If you want to share a flat, you can register in the UCM's housing exchange, take part in the UCM/SPA housing rental programme (an interesting offering of housing for rent through the Sociedad Pública de Alquiler (Public Rental Company) or leave a message on the forum to get in touch with other UCM students who are also looking for accommodation.

The Benito Pérez Galdós Residence offers a limited number of special places in agreement with Madrid's Halls of Residence. As such, as well as students, it offers the option of accommodation for teaching staff and researchers in the setting of the university community.
