Accommodation
The University of Zaragoza provides help in finding students’ accommodation through links on their website:
The city council’s youth services website has a good classified ads section to look for a room in a shared apartment. Choose the category “Buscar Alojamientos”.- https://www.zaragoza.es/ciudad/sectores/jovenes/cipaj/cont/anuncios.html
It is advisable to look for accommodation near the tram line since it communicates directly with the Campus where the classes are taught.
Health insurance
Students from the European Union must ask for the E-128 form that gives them access to medical help and social security.
Students from countries outside the European Union or from those that do not have agreements with Spain must have private insurance, as well as those not covered by Social Security in their country.
