University Provision of Affordable Housing for Students

Free Housing

Accommodation is considered as a public and free service, which is provided by the Directorate of University Services at the University of Oum El Bouaghi. Student accommodation is among the primary tasks of the National Office for University Services, and it includes 466 residence halls distributed across all the national territory. This service proves vital as there is a substantial increase in the number of resident students; their number exceeds 250,000 annually since 2010, with a ratio of 35% resident student compared to registered students. Additionally, 5,540 foreign students from 63 nationalities have also benefited from university housing because Algeria has friendly relations with all countries.

As part of the modernization of the administration and the digitization of the higher education sector, student accommodation through the Progres system has been in service since the academic year 2017-2018, reducing the required documents to just three. Furthermore, university enrollment has become purely digital for the new baccalaureate holders, eliminating the need for the hard copies. Resident students are required to adhere to the internal regulations of the residence halls for the purposes of the good conduct and the protection of these halls.
