The residences

During your stay at the EIF you will be housed in one of the campus residences.

You will share an apartment with three other participants from your program, but you will each have your own room (bed, desk and closet).

Only if you send your request to the person in charge of the accommodation at dir.eif@uqtr.ca at least two weeks before the beginning of the program.

Participants are always housed with people of the same gender.

The apartments are furnished and equiped with a kitchenette (fridge and oven included); however, there are no microwave nor television in the apartments. Also, there are no utensils, dishes, pots and pans etc. Sheets, blankets and pillows are provided, but you must bring your own towels and facecloths as well as toiletries (shampoo, soap etc.)

For information about family programs, please contact the EIF.

The spouses can't stay in your apartment.

There are washing machines and dryers available in the basement of each residence. However, you must provide your own laundry detergent

No, it is not possible to arrive before the start of the program.

However, we can suggest a few nearby hotels. Please contact us at: dir.eif@uqtr.ca
