Accommodation search support service for international students.

Find suitable accommodation before you leave.

Finding accommodation is a crucial part of the study abroad preparation process. ACEcelent assists Vietnamese students in exploring accommodation options based on their study location, budget, length of stay, expected move-in date, and living needs .

Depending on the country, options may include:

• Student dormitories or housing
• Shared house or apartment
• House or apartment for rent
• Homestay
• Short-term accommodation during the initial period upon arrival.

Choose accommodation that suits your daily life.

The cheapest accommodation isn’t necessarily the best option. When looking for accommodation, you should consider how it fits into your studies, daily life, and overall budget.

ACEcelent assists you in reviewing:

• Distance to school and estimated travel time.
• Public transportation and accessibility
• Supermarkets, pharmacies, shops, and essential services are located near your residence.
• Room types and shared amenities
• Living arrangements, such as living alone or sharing.
• Room availability and check-in dates

Understand the total cost before renting.

Rent is only one part of the total cost of accommodation. Depending on the country and type of rental, you may need to prepare for additional expenses:

• Rent is paid weekly or monthly.
• Deposit or bond
• Utility costs such as electricity, water, gas, or heating.
• Internet
• Registration or booking fees, if applicable.
• Furniture or household items if the accommodation is not furnished.
• Short-term accommodation costs during the initial period upon arrival.

ACEcelent helps you understand the main costs and rental conditions so you can make an informed decision.

Carefully review the lease terms.

Rental regulations vary by country, city, and accommodation provider. Before agreeing to rent, you should find out more:

• Contract term
• Deposit or bond requirements
• Items included in the rent
• Payment schedule and payment methods
• Conditions for termination or cancellation of the contract
• Rules of the house or accommodation
• Responsibility for paying utility and repair costs.

You should not make payments or sign contracts without carefully checking the accommodation information and rental terms.

Arrange accommodation before departure.

You don’t necessarily have to wait until you’re abroad to start looking for accommodation.

Starting your search from Vietnam gives you more time to compare options and proactively arrange accommodation before departure. If you haven’t found suitable long-term accommodation yet, ACEcelent can also assist in exploring short-term accommodation options , depending on your destination and room availability.

THINGS TO CHECK BEFORE CHOOSING ACCOMMODATION

Location & Travel Time:
Check the distance to the school and the time required for daily commuting.

Transportation:
Find out about bus, train, tram, or other public transport routes near your accommodation and the travel costs.

Total accommodation costs
include rent, security deposit or bond, utility costs, internet, transportation, and other incidental expenses — not just the advertised rental price.

Rooms & Amenities
Check whether it’s a private or shared room and what amenities are provided, such as a kitchen, washing machine, furniture, heating, or internet access.

Rental Agreement:
Carefully read the agreement and fully understand the rental period, payment terms, security deposit, cancellation conditions, and internal rules.

Safety & Legality:
Check to ensure the accommodation and rental arrangement are legal. Be wary of listings with unusually low prices, requiring upfront payment before verification, or failing to provide clear rental information.
