There are many students who, for various reasons, need to find accommodation during their university years, either because they choose to study in another city where they find an educational offer more suited to their needs, or because they live far away from where courses are taught.
Staying in a university residence while you study, does not only mean living on university premises, but also having an educational experience and the opportunity to live with other students.
University residences are managed by the A.di.S.U. Puglia (Agenzia per il diritto allo studio della Regione Puglia - Agency for the right to study of the Apulia region).
The following residences are located in Foggia:
- ‘Marina Mazzei’ Residence, in via Galanti, with 99 beds, 6 of which are for students with disabilities.
