Housing & Meals
Students have two housing options:
Homestays—Students live with Moroccan families in modern or traditional homes in various neighborhoods throughout Rabat.
Families are carefully selected by local CIEE staff. Most homes combine western and traditional Moroccan elements, and families are typically multilingual. Host families provide breakfast and dinner on weekdays and additional meals on the weekend. Students use public transportation to commute to and from their housing.
Student Residence Hall—A limited number of rooms in a local student residence hall are available to female students on this program. Students share double rooms in a new residence hall located across the street from the campus of Institut Hassan II and a short bus ride to ESDG. All rooms have bathrooms, kitchenettes, and Internet access. Students receive a monthly meal stipend that is sufficient for two daily meals for use in local markets, restaurants, and cafés. A small cafeteria is located on campus. The residence hall is open to all students, though most of the residents are Moroccans. Students use public transportation to commute to and from their housing.
