<h3>
	<span style="font-size:24px !important;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Private Hostel:</strong></span></span></h3>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">There are many private individuals who offer private hostels. They offer all facilities that any university hostel provides. In hostels you will have to share room with some other mates who can be your friends or you can also get whole room for yourself if you can afford. In hostels you don&rsquo;t have to worry about any chores or billing and everything is provided to you even food service which costs extra.</span></span></div>

<h3>
	<span style="font-size:24px !important;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>House:</strong></span></span></h3>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">A private is also a good option to select as your residence while studying abroad, however, this can be most expensive mean of accommodation. A house for a single student can be pretty difficult to afford. If you have a whole bunch of friends who all wish to live together than you should get a private house. You will need to arrange everything from A to Z of your own. This accommodation is good if you can do all your chores yourself like cooking, cleaning and paying bills.</span></span></div>

<h3>
	<span style="font-size:24px !important;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Paying Guest:</strong></span></span></h3>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Paying guest might be best option for you if you want a family like feeling even while studying abroad. Paying guest lives in a house with a family that provides you room with all facilities and also takes care of your food and wash your clothes. However, for young student, it is easy to such accommodation. If you have a good reference, there is a chance that someone will take you in still no one wants to keep a young strange man in their house and it can be unsafe for female student to live in stranger&rsquo;s house. Just so you know, Paying guest can be most expensive accommodation to get.</span></span></div>

On campus residence has its own pros and cons, mostly pros though. Inside university, you can live near to your all class fellows, department with every facility available there.

<h3>

<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Student dorms are provided by the university administration inside university. Dormitories are hostels that established with <img alt="" src="/ckfinder/userfiles/images/Dorm%20friends.gif" style="float: right; width: 230px; height: 129px; margin: 5px;" />the premises of campus for students to live. Student dorms are also cheaper than off campus residence and they provide every facility that a student needs. In one room, from two to three students live. All basic needs like closet, beds and chairs (optional) are provided by the administration. You just pay whole years charges in advance and after that you got nothing to worry about. University also provided the facility of mess which is optional to avail. For mess, you will have to pay extra monthly basis.</span></span></div>

These houses are also a great place to live with all your fellows of same group. This is not for free, if you are wondering, if you join one of them and live in the house, you will have to pay monthly charges and also take care of it along with all other mates.</span></span></div>

	<span style="font-size:24px !important;"><span style="color:#ff8c00;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>What Accommodation is Best to Live?</strong></span></span></span></h2>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">I have myself lived in Off campus residence and on campus residence and what I learned from this experience, I am going share it with you. First chose to live outside the university so I can have my privacy and freedom and you have to abide by some regulations of the hostel in the university. I had my freedom, however, I had to everything by myself like cleaning the house, paying bills, cooking and many other things like that. This was still not big problem even though I had to manage my job and studies with all the chores. But what I didn&rsquo;t like was the loneliness. I was outside the university and there was another friend with me but we couldn&rsquo;t have much fun and used to get very bored.</span></span></div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">It is difficult to become paying guest besides I don&rsquo;t think you should choose this option or you will bound yourself and won&rsquo;t get to learn, enjoy and experience much.</span></span></div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Off campus hostel are not usually in good condition, cost extra and you still can&rsquo;t feel comfortable there.</span></span></div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">It is not very easy to become part of a fraternity or clubs etc. Even if you do, you don&rsquo;t get to be right away after admission. There is complete procedure that you have to go through before that and some of that is not very likeable. In addition, they also cost extra.</span></span></div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">If you live in university dormitories, you may have problems in first week if there is any ragging issue otherwise, you will find all your classmates there. University dorms are a place where you are always enjoying with your friends. Depending on the rules of the hall, you will see students playing, having fun in the mid night. You also get a lot of help in studies there. You can get security from the university. Everything you need is available near like your department and cafeterias. And the mess food of hostels is not as bad as people say it is. You are paying for the service, if you don&rsquo;t like it you can just unsubscribe and get your mess security fee back.</span></span></div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">What I recommend, <strong>University Dormitories are best for accommodation while studying abroad.</strong></span></span></div>
