Not too many IIRC. They mostly stick to Corrib Village, Dun aras, Lisdonagh and maybe also Center Point.

Usually just 2nd years in Gort in my experience.

Hey everyone! I'm going to be starting in September with the engineering program as an international student from the US. I've absolutely no idea where to start with looking for accommodations! I know I don't want to do the housing through the school since I'm so much older than a typical first year (I'm 30). Any recommendations? I've no problem living with people who are younger, as I normally gravitate towards a younger crowd anyways, I just definitely need my own room for sure. Open to sharing a house or flat, and won't have a car.

Thanks so much!

Hey there,

I am looking for accommodation too, going to be starting a masters in September and just looking for a few roomies as it seems to be tough to get decent accommodation just for 1 !

Cheers!

Hi, I'm a 21 year old second year student in NUIG and looking for roomates to share a house with this September. I've already teamed up with one girl but we'd need at least 3 or 4 to get a decent house. PM me or reply if you're interested.
Thanks

Does anyone know what the best place to look is in terms of renting a room.

I've been checking daft.ie which seems okay but limited.

I understand the galway advertiser used to be good, but is that still the go to place to look?

Id imagine the Advertiser classifieds is still a big go to for many students, and many traditional landlords.

Hi, I'm hoping to receive an offer for medicine on Monday, but I don't have any accommodation booked. I called the office and got a number for a landlady with a room in Newcastle, but I'd honestly prefer to stay in student accommodation for the social aspect. I'd only be really happy with a single-ensuite room. If anyone has any advice/suggestions I'd be more than delighted. Thanks

Corrib Village always has a few cancellations but you have to be in like a hawk to avail of places(you have to be on the waiting list I think), and you wouldn't be guaranteed a single or ensuite room. I'd imagine it's the same in Dunaras or wherever else other first years stay. If push comes to shove you might have to accept accommodation outside your ideal preferences because you have left it till now. Hope it all works out
