Affordable & Modern

Built in 2020, these modern halls provide apartments at remarkably lower rental prices compared to the private market, making them a top choice for your housing needs.

Dedicated Transportation

We partnered with two city buses to transport students directly between Apollonia Halls and the campus. The routes are even extended during the night for your convenience!

Apply Early: Limited Capacity!

Due to high demand, rooms at Apollonia Halls are highly limited. While allocations are prioritized by application date, we must also factor in shared-apartment gender matching and ensuring a fair, diverse distribution of rooms across our partner universities. Because we cannot guarantee a spot for every student, we strongly advise submitting your housing form immediately after your mobility is confirmed.

If you do not secure a spot in the student halls, you will need to rent a private room or share an apartment. There are many local Facebook groups and websites dedicated to Erasmus housing in Limassol.

• Average Rent: Expect to pay between €400 – €650 per month for a room in a shared apartment.
• Utility Bills: Always clarify with your landlord if electricity, water, and internet are included in the rent or charged separately.
• Deposits: It is standard practice in Cyprus to pay one month’s rent upfront as a refundable security deposit before moving in.

You do not need a visa to enter Cyprus. However, if your stay exceeds 3 months, you are required by law to apply for a Registration Certificate (Yellow Slip / MEU1 form) at the local Civil Registry and Migration Department.

You must obtain a Student Entry Visa before arriving in Cyprus. The CUT Erasmus Office and International Student Support team will assist you with the necessary paperwork and guide you through the embassy application process.

European Health Insurance Card (EHIC)

EU citizens must bring their valid EHIC card. This grants you access to state-provided healthcare in Cyprus under the same conditions and at the same cost as Cypriot citizens. Non-EU students must purchase comprehensive private health insurance covering repatriation and emergency medical expenses before arrival.

Driving on the Left

Like the UK, in Cyprus, we drive on the left-hand side of the road. Please be careful when crossing the street!

Electricity (240V)

Cyprus uses the UK-style 3-pin electrical plug socket (Type G). Don’t forget to pack an adaptor for your electronics.

Currency & Tipping

The currency is the Euro (€). Leaving a tip in restaurants is customary, but not required.

Indoor Smoking Ban

There is a strict smoking ban inside all public buildings in Cyprus. Restaurants and cafes offer designated outdoor areas.
