Studying abroad is a unique experience that no student should miss, as you can read in our experience report . You get to know other cultures, improve your language skills and make friends for life. In addition, a stay abroad looks pretty good on your CV and is, so to speak, the cherry on the cake. However, looking for an apartment was a bit strenuous at times, but thanks to Uniplaces and the Uniplaces scholarship that you can currently win, those days are over!
What is Uniplaces?
Uniplaces is an international platform for furnished student accommodation. Students can easily and securely book a shared room, a studio or an apartment for their stay abroad. Simply use the search mask and browse for accommodation in over 165 countries. The landlord will contact you in less than 48 hours and the trip can begin!
Of course, a semester abroad is even nicer when you can save on rent costs for the entire six months - so it's a good thing that there is the Uniplaces scholarship, thanks to which you can live rent-free for a semester!
How do you get the Uniplaces scholarship?
The answer to that is: karma, baby! To get the valuable scholarship from Uniplaces, all you have to do is tell us about the good deeds you do for others. Don't worry, you don't have to be Mother Teresa to do this - all good deeds, small or large, one-off or regular, can win. Simply tell them about it via video, photos or a text you have written yourself. An eight-person jury then selects the ten most creative applications and rewards the winners with a housing scholarship for one semester.
The jury members attach importance to this:
- originality
- authenticity
- Number of students helped
- Number of votes
Don't forget: Remember to share your application with friends to get more votes, as they will also influence the jury's decision.
