Erasmus in Portugal

Embarking on an Erasmus adventure in Lisbon is an exciting opportunity for students to experience the vibrant culture, rich history, and welcoming atmosphere of Portugal's capital city.

When moving to a new country, whether to study on Erasmus, retire or even with a family, one of the first questions asked is about the people, in this case, the people of Portugal. What are Portuguese people like? What are the Portuguese known for? Are Portuguese people welcoming?

For the first time Portugal has 5 schools in the top 95 of the best management schools in Europe, a ranking carried out every year by the Financial Times (FT).

Where are the best universities in Portugal?

Dynamic. This is how we can define the student residences market in Portugal.

Lisbon is in the Top 3 of the world's most innovative cities, according to a ranking prepared by Ambr Eyewear.

Lisbon City Council (CML) has approved the launch of the public tender for the conversion of two of the buildings that the municipality bought from Social Security into student accommodation with 208 rooms.

The Portugese Government is considering abolishing the fixed amount of money given to university students as an accommodation allowance, and adjusting it according to the average rent in the area where they study.

The new student halls of residence Collegiate Porto Campus, which consists of 580 studio flats, is scheduled to open very soon in October 2019.

May brings big celebrations and amongst them is the Queima das Fitas or Burning of the Ribbons in Coimbra.
