Accommodation is the biggest challenge for those who want to study in Évora

Housing is the main challenge for the more than 1,200 new students who have already started arriving in Évora for the start of the academic year at the University of Évora. Ana Beatriz Calado, president of the Student Association, told Diana FM that the difficulties in finding housing harm the integration of students in Higher Education. Just a few days before the start of classes, scheduled for September 14, the lack of housing continues to be a concern for those arriving in the capital of Alentejo.
