ACCOMMODATIONS |
"Located in the heart of downtown
Halifax’s cultural, financial and shopping district,
NSCAD University does not maintain student
residences. Students are therefore responsible for
making their own housing arrangements in the
Halifax/Dartmouth area. Affordable housing exists in
a variety of neighbourhoods within a short walking
distance to the campus. Most students rent furnished
rooms from private owners or share an apartment,
flat or house with other students.
With five universities in the city,
many students are seeking apartments at the start of
the fall and winter semesters, so it’s wise to start
searching at least two weeks before classes begin.
Accommodations are generally much easier to find at
the start of the summer semester in May." -
