Durham students also can travel from Pearson Airport to their accommodation by Taxi or Uber, as they wish. 

If you have booked and paid for a room in our on-campus residence, please contact our housing department to determine your move-in dates. 

If you are living off campus, start your housing search as soon as you have accepted your offer and received your Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL). 

Visit the off campus housing website for useful resources, including a list of important tips for international students during their house search.

Due to high demand, finding off-campus accommodations can be challenging if you wait until the last moment to start your housing search. 

Arriving to Peterborough or Oshawa without permanent/temporary accommodation is strongly discouraged.

Finally, please be careful with rental scams and do not hesitate to contact us or off campus housing for support.
