The most common accommodation choice is the UNIVERSITY

size and type o room (single en suite, single, shared bathroom,
etc.). The minimum cost is EUR 150.00 per month. A room with
its own basic kitchen will cost you EUR 230.00. The university stu-
dent hostel is equipped with a direct intranet link, which al-
lows students to use all the options ensured by the library and

Students can also choose to live o-campus in the student hostel
THE GREEN APPLE, which oers special rates or RSU students start-
ing rom EUR 200.00 per month (ull-board options ranging rom
EUR 350.00) The hostel is located in the Old Town and thus oers
a wide range o all sorts o social benets, e.g. the Latvian National
Opera is right across the street, and it is in close proximity to major
transport networks, or any other central object or that matter.
Another rather popular alternative is renting a PRIVATE APART-
MENT, oten shared by two students, and the monthly cost ranging

utility costs included, but depending on the quality and location.

The cost o living in Riga is pretty much as in the majority o Eu-
ropean countries. Most students coming to Latvia rom other EU
countries nd Latvia even cheaper than their home countries;
however, the cost o living mostly depends on ones individual
liestyle, desires and necessities. As a rough guide, we recommend
a minimum o around EUR 500 per month (including accommo-
dations) or expenses such as phone, ood, study materials, local
transport, hobbies, leisure, hygiene and other. The table on the
right gives an overall insight in what the costs o living in Riga are.
