EXPENSES

Students bear the responsibility to cover their full living and housing expenses prior to their arrival in Venice (estimated at a minimum of €850 per month).

Accommodation

Students are responsible for their own accommodation during both the first semester in Venice and the second semester at the hosting university.

The EMA Office is available to provide advice and suggestions for accommodation. See these useful links for independent house hunting. Depending on the choice of accommodation, the anticipated rent per each student could range from a minimum of €300 to a maximum of €700 per month, with utilities and condominium expenses ranging from €85 to €250 per month. 

For the second semester, EMA students carry the responsibility for all accommodation arrangements. Accommodation costs vary depending on the second semester destination, due to the differences in the cost of living in different European countries.

* The annual field trip is subject to final confirmation and availability of budgetary resources.
